scala.util.control

NonFatal

object NonFatal

Extractor of non-fatal Throwables. Will not match fatal errors like VirtualMachineError (for example, OutOfMemoryError, a subclass of VirtualMachineError), ThreadDeath, LinkageError, InterruptedException, ControlThrowable. However, StackOverflowError is matched, i.e. considered non-fatal.

Note that scala.util.control.ControlThrowable, an internal Throwable, is not matched by NonFatal (and would therefore be thrown).

For example, all harmless Throwables can be caught by:

try {
  // dangerous stuff
} catch {
  case NonFatal(e) => log.error(e, "Something not that bad.")
 // or
  case e if NonFatal(e) => log.error(e, "Something not that bad.")
}
