Get NetBeans exception details as String

[iCyclone]

Hi forum,

while throwing an exception in a try-catch section NetBeans prints some very useful details in a console. I would really like to get those details as a String object.

For example: a servlet throws org.hibernate.exception.ConstraintViolationException while working with PostgreSQL.

In NetBeans console I see the following text:

ConstraintViolationException has a method getSQLException(), which should give you the root cause of the exception. Try getMessage() on this. The SQLException itself can have other SQLExceptions nested inside which are accessible via getNextException().
