public class FatalError
extends java.lang.Error

A general error. These are thrown when an unexpected state is encountered in the process of binding an underlying native library, and are intended to be fatal. We throw a Java Error this in hopes of getting a stack trace rather than the segmentation fault that will inevitably occur if execution goes much further. Sometimes we even get it right.

In most cases these are instantiated by java-gnome's internal native code and thrown from there.

See FatalError for the Throwable emitted when "critical" and other fatal problems occur within GLib, GTK, and the other GNOME libraries.
