The IndexColorModel class is a ColorModel class that works with pixel values consisting of a single sample that is an index into a fixed colormap in the default sRGB color space. The colormap specifies red, green, blue, and optional alpha components corresponding to each index. All components are represented in the colormap as 8-bit unsigned integral values. Some constructors allow the caller to specify "holes" in the colormap by indicating which colormap entries are valid and which represent unusable colors via the bits set in a BigInteger object. This color model is similar to an X11 PseudoColor visual.

Some constructors provide a means to specify an alpha component for each pixel in the colormap, while others either provide no such means or, in some cases, a flag to indicate whether the colormap data contains alpha values. If no alpha is supplied to the constructor, an opaque alpha component (alpha = 1.0) is assumed for each entry. An optional transparent pixel value can be supplied that indicates a pixel to be made completely transparent, regardless of any alpha component supplied or assumed for that pixel value. Note that the color components in the colormap of an IndexColorModel objects are never pre-multiplied with the alpha components.

The transparency of an IndexColorModel object is determined by examining the alpha components of the colors in the colormap and choosing the most specific value after considering the optional alpha values and any transparent index specified. The transparency value is Transparency.OPAQUE only if all valid colors in the colormap are opaque and there is no valid transparent pixel. If all valid colors in the colormap are either completely opaque (alpha = 1.0) or completely transparent (alpha = 0.0), which typically occurs when a valid transparent pixel is specified, the value is Transparency.BITMASK. Otherwise, the value is Transparency.TRANSLUCENT, indicating that some valid color has an alpha component that is neither completely transparent nor completely opaque (0.0 < alpha < 1.0).

If an IndexColorModel object has a transparency value of Transparency.OPAQUE, then the hasAlpha and getNumComponents methods (both inherited from ColorModel) return false and 3, respectively. For any other transparency value, hasAlpha returns true and getNumComponents returns 4.

The index represented by a pixel value is stored in the least significant n bits of the pixel representations passed to the methods of this class, where n is the pixel size specified to the constructor for a particular IndexColorModel object; n must be between 1 and 16, inclusive. Higher order bits in pixel representations are assumed to be zero. For those methods that use a primitive array pixel representation of type transferType, the array length is always one. The transfer types supported are DataBuffer.TYPE_BYTE and DataBuffer.TYPE_USHORT. A single int pixel representation is valid for all objects of this class, since it is always possible to represent pixel values used with this class in a single int. Therefore, methods that use this representation do not throw an IllegalArgumentException due to an invalid pixel value.

Many of the methods in this class are final. The reason for this is that the underlying native graphics code makes assumptions about the layout and operation of this class and those assumptions are reflected in the implementations of the methods here that are marked final. You can subclass this class for other reasons, but you cannot override or modify the behaviour of those methods.

Forces the raster data to match the state specified in the isAlphaPremultiplied variable, assuming the data is currently correctly described by this ColorModel. It may multiply or divide the color raster data by alpha, or do nothing if the data is in the correct state. If the data needs to be coerced, this method will also return an instance of this ColorModel with the isAlphaPremultiplied flag set appropriately. This method will throw a UnsupportedOperationException if it is not supported by this ColorModel. Since ColorModel is an abstract class, any instance is an instance of a subclass. Subclasses must override this method since the implementation in this abstract class throws an UnsupportedOperationException.
Parameters
rasterthe WritableRaster data
isAlphaPremultipliedtrue if the alpha is premultiplied; false otherwise
Return
a ColorModel object that represents the coerced data.
Returns a new BufferedImage of TYPE_INT_ARGB or TYPE_INT_RGB that has a Raster with pixel data computed by expanding the indices in the source Raster using the color/alpha component arrays of this ColorModel. If forceARGB is true, a TYPE_INT_ARGB image is returned regardless of whether or not this ColorModel has an alpha component array or a transparent pixel.
Parameters

See Also
Creates a WritableRaster with the specified width and height that has a data layout (SampleModel) compatible with this ColorModel. This method only works for color models with 16 or fewer bits per pixel.

Since IndexColorModel can be subclassed, any subclass that supports greater than 16 bits per pixel must override this method.

Returns the alpha component for the specified pixel, scaled from 0 to 255. The pixel value is specified as an int.
Parameters
pixelthe specified pixel
Return
the value of the alpha component for the specified pixel
Returns the alpha component for the specified pixel, scaled from 0 to 255. The pixel value is specified by an array of data elements of type transferType passed in as an object reference. If inData is not a primitive array of type transferType, a ClassCastException is thrown. An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown if inData is not large enough to hold a pixel value for this ColorModel. If this transferType is not supported, a UnsupportedOperationException will be thrown. Since ColorModel is an abstract class, any instance must be an instance of a subclass. Subclasses inherit the implementation of this method and if they don't override it, this method throws an exception if the subclass uses a transferType other than DataBuffer.TYPE_BYTE, DataBuffer.TYPE_USHORT, or DataBuffer.TYPE_INT.
Parameters
inDatathe specified pixel
Return
the alpha component of the specified pixel, scaled from 0 to 255.
Throws
ClassCastExceptionif inData is not a primitive array of type transferType
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsExceptionif inData is not large enough to hold a pixel value for this ColorModel
UnsupportedOperationExceptionif this tranferType is not supported by this ColorModel
Returns a Raster representing the alpha channel of an image, extracted from the input Raster, provided that pixel values of this ColorModel represent color and alpha information as separate spatial bands (e.g. ComponentColorModel and DirectColorModel). This method assumes that Raster objects associated with such a ColorModel store the alpha band, if present, as the last band of image data. Returns null if there is no separate spatial alpha channel associated with this ColorModel. If this is an IndexColorModel which has alpha in the lookup table, this method will return null since there is no spatially discrete alpha channel. This method will create a new Raster (but will share the data array). Since ColorModel is an abstract class, any instance is an instance of a subclass. Subclasses must override this method to get any behavior other than returning null because the implementation in this abstract class returns null.
Parameters
rasterthe specified Raster
Return
a Raster representing the alpha channel of an image, obtained from the specified Raster.
Copies the array of alpha transparency components into the specified array. Only the initial entries of the array as specified by getMapSize are written.
Parameters

Returns the blue color component for the specified pixel, scaled from 0 to 255 in the default RGB ColorSpace, sRGB. The pixel value is specified as an int. The returned value is a non pre-multiplied value.
Parameters
pixelthe specified pixel
Return
the value of the blue color component for the specified pixel
Returns the blue color component for the specified pixel, scaled from 0 to 255 in the default RGB ColorSpace, sRGB. A color conversion is done if necessary. The pixel value is specified by an array of data elements of type transferType passed in as an object reference. The returned value is a non pre-multiplied value. For example, if the alpha is premultiplied, this method divides it out before returning the value. If the alpha value is 0, the blue value will be 0. If inData is not a primitive array of type transferType, a ClassCastException is thrown. An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown if inData is not large enough to hold a pixel value for this ColorModel. If this transferType is not supported, a UnsupportedOperationException will be thrown. Since ColorModel is an abstract class, any instance must be an instance of a subclass. Subclasses inherit the implementation of this method and if they don't override it, this method throws an exception if the subclass uses a transferType other than DataBuffer.TYPE_BYTE, DataBuffer.TYPE_USHORT, or DataBuffer.TYPE_INT.

Return
an array containing the number of bits of each color and alpha component of this IndexColorModel
Returns the number of bits for the specified color/alpha component. Color components are indexed in the order specified by the ColorSpace. Typically, this order reflects the name of the color space type. For example, for TYPE_RGB, index 0 corresponds to red, index 1 to green, and index 2 to blue. If this ColorModel supports alpha, the alpha component corresponds to the index following the last color component.
Parameters

Throws
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsExceptionif componentIdx is greater than the number of components or less than zero

Returns a pixel value represented as an int in this ColorModel, given an array of normalized color/alpha components. This method will throw an IllegalArgumentException if pixel values for this ColorModel are not conveniently representable as a single int. An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown if the normComponents array is not large enough to hold all the color and alpha components (starting at normOffset). Since ColorModel is an abstract class, any instance is an instance of a subclass. The default implementation of this method in this abstract class first converts from the normalized form to the unnormalized form and then calls getDataElement(int[], int). Subclasses which may have instances which do not support the unnormalized form must override this method.
Parameters
normComponentsan array of normalized color and alpha components
normOffsetthe index into normComponents at which to begin retrieving the color and alpha components
Return

This array can then be passed to the setDataElements method of a WritableRaster object. An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown if the normComponents array is not large enough to hold all the color and alpha components (starting at normOffset). If the obj variable is null, a new array will be allocated. If obj is not null, it must be a primitive array of type transferType; otherwise, a ClassCastException is thrown. An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown if obj is not large enough to hold a pixel value for this ColorModel. Since ColorModel is an abstract class, any instance is an instance of a subclass.

Parameters
pixelthe specified pixel
Return
the value of the green color component for the specified pixel
Returns the green color component for the specified pixel, scaled from 0 to 255 in the default RGB ColorSpace, sRGB. A color conversion is done if necessary. The pixel value is specified by an array of data elements of type transferType passed in as an object reference. The returned value will be a non pre-multiplied value. For example, if the alpha is premultiplied, this method divides it out before returning the value. If the alpha value is 0, the green value is 0. If inData is not a primitive array of type transferType, a ClassCastException is thrown. An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown if inData is not large enough to hold a pixel value for this ColorModel. If this transferType is not supported, a UnsupportedOperationException will be thrown. Since ColorModel is an abstract class, any instance must be an instance of a subclass. Subclasses inherit the implementation of this method and if they don't override it, this method throws an exception if the subclass uses a transferType other than DataBuffer.TYPE_BYTE, DataBuffer.TYPE_USHORT, or DataBuffer.TYPE_INT.

Returns the size of the color/alpha component arrays in this IndexColorModel.
Return
the size of the color and alpha component arrays.
Returns an array of all of the color/alpha components in normalized form, given an unnormalized component array. Unnormalized components are unsigned integral values between 0 and 2n - 1, where n is the number of bits for a particular component. Normalized components are float values between a per component minimum and maximum specified by the ColorSpace object for this ColorModel. An IllegalArgumentException will be thrown if color component values for this ColorModel are not conveniently representable in the unnormalized form. If the normComponents array is null, a new array will be allocated. The normComponents array will be returned. Color/alpha components are stored in the normComponents array starting at normOffset (even if the array is allocated by this method). An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown if the normComponents array is not null and is not large enough to hold all the color and alpha components (starting at normOffset). An IllegalArgumentException is thrown if the components array is not large enough to hold all the color and alpha components starting at offset.

Since ColorModel is an abstract class, any instance is an instance of a subclass. The default implementation of this method in this abstract class assumes that component values for this class are conveniently representable in the unnormalized form. Therefore, subclasses which may have instances which do not support the unnormalized form must override this method.

Parameters

UnsupportedOperationExceptionif this method is unable to determine the number of bits per component
Returns an array of all of the color/alpha components in normalized form, given a pixel in this ColorModel. The pixel value is specified by an array of data elements of type transferType passed in as an object reference. If pixel is not a primitive array of type transferType, a ClassCastException is thrown. An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown if pixel is not large enough to hold a pixel value for this ColorModel. Normalized components are float values between a per component minimum and maximum specified by the ColorSpace object for this ColorModel. If the normComponents array is null, a new array will be allocated. The normComponents array will be returned. Color/alpha components are stored in the normComponents array starting at normOffset (even if the array is allocated by this method). An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown if the normComponents array is not null and is not large enough to hold all the color and alpha components (starting at normOffset). Since ColorModel is an abstract class, any instance is an instance of a subclass. The default implementation of this method in this abstract class first retrieves color and alpha components in the unnormalized form using getComponents(Object, int[], int) and then calls getNormalizedComponents(int[], int, float[], int). Subclasses which may have instances which do not support the unnormalized form must override this method.

For example, if alpha is premultiplied, this method divides it out before returning the value. If the alpha value is 0, the red value is 0. If inData is not a primitive array of type transferType, a ClassCastException is thrown. An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown if inData is not large enough to hold a pixel value for this ColorModel. If this transferType is not supported, a UnsupportedOperationException will be thrown. Since ColorModel is an abstract class, any instance must be an instance of a subclass. Subclasses inherit the implementation of this method and if they don't override it, this method throws an exception if the subclass uses a transferType other than DataBuffer.TYPE_BYTE, DataBuffer.TYPE_USHORT, or DataBuffer.TYPE_INT.
Parameters
inDataan array of pixel values
Return
the value of the red component of the specified pixel.
Throws
ClassCastExceptionif inData is not a primitive array of type transferType
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsExceptionif inData is not large enough to hold a pixel value for this ColorModel
UnsupportedOperationExceptionif this tranferType is not supported by this ColorModel
Copies the array of red color components into the specified array. Only the initial entries of the array as specified by getMapSize are written.
Parameters
rthe specified array into which the elements of the array of red color components are copied
Returns the color/alpha components of the pixel in the default RGB color model format. The pixel value is specified as an int. The returned value is in a non pre-multiplied format.
Parameters
pixelthe specified pixel
Return
the color and alpha components of the specified pixel
Returns the color/alpha components for the specified pixel in the default RGB color model format. A color conversion is done if necessary. The pixel value is specified by an array of data elements of type transferType passed in as an object reference. If inData is not a primitive array of type transferType, a ClassCastException is thrown. An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown if inData is not large enough to hold a pixel value for this ColorModel. The returned value will be in a non pre-multiplied format, i.e. if the alpha is premultiplied, this method will divide it out of the color components (if the alpha value is 0, the color values will be 0).
Parameters
inDatathe specified pixel
Return
the color and alpha components of the specified pixel.
Returns a DirectColorModel that describes the default format for integer RGB values used in many of the methods in the AWT image interfaces for the convenience of the programmer. The color space is the default ColorSpace , sRGB. The format for the RGB values is an integer with 8 bits each of alpha, red, green, and blue color components ordered correspondingly from the most significant byte to the least significant byte, as in: 0xAARRGGBB. Color components are not premultiplied by the alpha component. This format does not necessarily represent the native or the most efficient ColorModel for a particular device or for all images. It is merely used as a common color model format.
Return
a DirectColorModelobject describing default RGB values.
Converts data for each index from the color and alpha component arrays to an int in the default RGB ColorModel format and copies the resulting 32-bit ARGB values into the specified array. Only the initial entries of the array as specified by getMapSize are written.
Parameters
rgbthe specified array into which the converted ARGB values from this array of color and alpha components are copied.
Returns the transfer type of this ColorModel. The transfer type is the type of primitive array used to represent pixel values as arrays.
Return
the transfer type.
Returns the transparency. Returns either OPAQUE, BITMASK, or TRANSLUCENT
Return
the transparency of this IndexColorModel
Returns the index of a transparent pixel in this IndexColorModel or -1 if there is no pixel with an alpha value of 0. If a transparent pixel was explicitly specified in one of the constructors by its index, then that index will be preferred, otherwise, the index of any pixel which happens to be fully transparent may be returned.
Return
the index of a transparent pixel in this IndexColorModel object, or -1 if there is no such pixel
Returns an array of all of the color/alpha components in unnormalized form, given a normalized component array. Unnormalized components are unsigned integral values between 0 and 2n - 1, where n is the number of bits for a particular component. Normalized components are float values between a per component minimum and maximum specified by the ColorSpace object for this ColorModel. An IllegalArgumentException will be thrown if color component values for this ColorModel are not conveniently representable in the unnormalized form. If the components array is null, a new array will be allocated. The components array will be returned. Color/alpha components are stored in the components array starting at offset (even if the array is allocated by this method). An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown if the components array is not null and is not large enough to hold all the color and alpha components (starting at offset). An IllegalArgumentException is thrown if the normComponents array is not large enough to hold all the color and alpha components starting at normOffset.
Parameters
normComponentsan array containing normalized components
normOffsetthe offset into the normComponents array at which to start retrieving normalized components
componentsan array that receives the components from normComponents
offsetthe index into components at which to begin storing normalized components from normComponents
Return
an array containing unnormalized color and alpha components.
Throws
IllegalArgumentExceptionIf the component values for this ColorModel are not conveniently representable in the unnormalized form.
IllegalArgumentExceptionif the length of normComponents minus normOffset is less than numComponents
UnsupportedOperationExceptionif the constructor of this ColorModel called the super(bits) constructor, but did not override this method. See the constructor, {@link #ColorModel(int)}.
Returns a BigInteger that indicates the valid/invalid pixels in the colormap. A bit is valid if the BigInteger value at that index is set, and is invalid if the BigInteger value at that index is not set. The only valid ranges to query in the BigInteger are between 0 and the map size.
Return
a BigInteger indicating the valid/invalid pixels.
Returns whether or not alpha is supported in this ColorModel.
Return
true if alpha is supported in this ColorModel; false otherwise.
Returns the hash code for this ColorModel.
Return
a hash code for this ColorModel.
Returns whether or not the alpha has been premultiplied in the pixel values to be translated by this ColorModel. If the boolean is true, this ColorModel is to be used to interpret pixel values in which color and alpha information are represented as separate spatial bands, and color samples are assumed to have been multiplied by the alpha sample.
Return
true if the alpha values are premultiplied in the pixel values to be translated by this ColorModel; false otherwise.
Returns true if raster is compatible with this ColorModel or false if it is not compatible with this ColorModel.
Parameters
rasterthe {@link Raster} object to test for compatibility
Return
true if raster is compatible with this ColorModel; false otherwise.
Checks if the specified SampleModel is compatible with this ColorModel. If sm is null, this method returns false.
Parameters

Return
true if all pixels are valid; false otherwise.
Returns whether or not the pixel is valid.
Parameters
pixelthe specified pixel value
Return
true if pixel is valid; false otherwise.
Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor. If any threads are waiting on this object, one of them is chosen to be awakened. The choice is arbitrary and occurs at the discretion of the implementation. A thread waits on an object's monitor by calling one of the wait methods.

The awakened thread will not be able to proceed until the current thread relinquishes the lock on this object. The awakened thread will compete in the usual manner with any other threads that might be actively competing to synchronize on this object; for example, the awakened thread enjoys no reliable privilege or disadvantage in being the next thread to lock this object.

This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner of this object's monitor. A thread becomes the owner of the object's monitor in one of three ways:

  • By executing a synchronized instance method of that object.
  • By executing the body of a synchronized statement that synchronizes on the object.
  • For objects of type Class, by executing a synchronized static method of that class.

Only one thread at a time can own an object's monitor.

Throws
IllegalMonitorStateExceptionif the current thread is not the owner of this object's monitor.
Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor. A thread waits on an object's monitor by calling one of the wait methods.

The awakened threads will not be able to proceed until the current thread relinquishes the lock on this object. The awakened threads will compete in the usual manner with any other threads that might be actively competing to synchronize on this object; for example, the awakened threads enjoy no reliable privilege or disadvantage in being the next thread to lock this object.

This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner of this object's monitor. See the notify method for a description of the ways in which a thread can become the owner of a monitor.

Throws
IllegalMonitorStateExceptionif the current thread is not the owner of this object's monitor.
Returns the String representation of the contents of this ColorModelobject.
Return
a String representing the contents of this ColorModel object.
Causes current thread to wait until another thread invokes the method or the method for this object. In other words, this method behaves exactly as if it simply performs the call wait(0).

The current thread must own this object's monitor. The thread releases ownership of this monitor and waits until another thread notifies threads waiting on this object's monitor to wake up either through a call to the notify method or the notifyAll method. The thread then waits until it can re-obtain ownership of the monitor and resumes execution.

As in the one argument version, interrupts and spurious wakeups are possible, and this method should always be used in a loop:

     synchronized (obj) {
         while (<condition does not hold>)
             obj.wait();
         ... // Perform action appropriate to condition
     }
 
This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner of this object's monitor. See the notify method for a description of the ways in which a thread can become the owner of a monitor.
Throws
IllegalMonitorStateExceptionif the current thread is not the owner of the object's monitor.
InterruptedExceptionif another thread interrupted the current thread before or while the current thread was waiting for a notification. The interrupted status of the current thread is cleared when this exception is thrown.
Causes current thread to wait until either another thread invokes the method or the method for this object, or a specified amount of time has elapsed.

The current thread must own this object's monitor.

This method causes the current thread (call it T) to place itself in the wait set for this object and then to relinquish any and all synchronization claims on this object. Thread T becomes disabled for thread scheduling purposes and lies dormant until one of four things happens:

  • Some other thread invokes the notify method for this object and thread T happens to be arbitrarily chosen as the thread to be awakened.
  • Some other thread invokes the notifyAll method for this object.
  • Some other thread interrupts thread T.
  • The specified amount of real time has elapsed, more or less. If timeout is zero, however, then real time is not taken into consideration and the thread simply waits until notified.
The thread T is then removed from the wait set for this object and re-enabled for thread scheduling. It then competes in the usual manner with other threads for the right to synchronize on the object; once it has gained control of the object, all its synchronization claims on the object are restored to the status quo ante - that is, to the situation as of the time that the wait method was invoked. Thread T then returns from the invocation of the wait method. Thus, on return from the wait method, the synchronization state of the object and of thread T is exactly as it was when the wait method was invoked.

A thread can also wake up without being notified, interrupted, or timing out, a so-called spurious wakeup. While this will rarely occur in practice, applications must guard against it by testing for the condition that should have caused the thread to be awakened, and continuing to wait if the condition is not satisfied. In other words, waits should always occur in loops, like this one:

     synchronized (obj) {
         while (<condition does not hold>)
             obj.wait(timeout);
         ... // Perform action appropriate to condition
     }
 
(For more information on this topic, see Section 3.2.3 in Doug Lea's "Concurrent Programming in Java (Second Edition)" (Addison-Wesley, 2000), or Item 50 in Joshua Bloch's "Effective Java Programming Language Guide" (Addison-Wesley, 2001).

If the current thread is interrupted by another thread while it is waiting, then an InterruptedException is thrown. This exception is not thrown until the lock status of this object has been restored as described above.

Note that the wait method, as it places the current thread into the wait set for this object, unlocks only this object; any other objects on which the current thread may be synchronized remain locked while the thread waits.

This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner of this object's monitor. See the notify method for a description of the ways in which a thread can become the owner of a monitor.

Parameters
timeoutthe maximum time to wait in milliseconds.
Throws
IllegalArgumentExceptionif the value of timeout is negative.
IllegalMonitorStateExceptionif the current thread is not the owner of the object's monitor.
InterruptedExceptionif another thread interrupted the current thread before or while the current thread was waiting for a notification. The interrupted status of the current thread is cleared when this exception is thrown.
Causes current thread to wait until another thread invokes the method or the method for this object, or some other thread interrupts the current thread, or a certain amount of real time has elapsed.

This method is similar to the wait method of one argument, but it allows finer control over the amount of time to wait for a notification before giving up. The amount of real time, measured in nanoseconds, is given by:

 1000000*timeout+nanos

In all other respects, this method does the same thing as the method of one argument. In particular, wait(0, 0) means the same thing as wait(0).

The current thread must own this object's monitor. The thread releases ownership of this monitor and waits until either of the following two conditions has occurred:

  • Another thread notifies threads waiting on this object's monitor to wake up either through a call to the notify method or the notifyAll method.
  • The timeout period, specified by timeout milliseconds plus nanos nanoseconds arguments, has elapsed.

The thread then waits until it can re-obtain ownership of the monitor and resumes execution.

As in the one argument version, interrupts and spurious wakeups are possible, and this method should always be used in a loop:

     synchronized (obj) {
         while (<condition does not hold>)
             obj.wait(timeout, nanos);
         ... // Perform action appropriate to condition
     }
 
This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner of this object's monitor. See the notify method for a description of the ways in which a thread can become the owner of a monitor.
Parameters
timeoutthe maximum time to wait in milliseconds.
nanosadditional time, in nanoseconds range 0-999999.
Throws
IllegalArgumentExceptionif the value of timeout is negative or the value of nanos is not in the range 0-999999.
IllegalMonitorStateExceptionif the current thread is not the owner of this object's monitor.
InterruptedExceptionif another thread interrupted the current thread before or while the current thread was waiting for a notification. The interrupted status of the current thread is cleared when this exception is thrown.
