Remarks

Thrown when an application attempts to use null in a case where an object is required. These include: <ul> <li>Calling the instance method of a null object. <li>Accessing or modifying the field of a null object. <li>Taking the length of null as if it were an array. <li>Accessing or modifying the slots of null as if it were an array. <li>Throwing null as if it were a Throwable value. </ul>

Applications should throw instances of this class to indicate other illegal uses of the null object.

NullPointerException objects may be constructed by the virtual machine as if Throwable#Throwable(String, Throwable, boolean, boolean) suppression were disabled and/or the stack trace was not writable.
