Why I am getting java.lang.AbstractMethodError errors?


What are the possible causes for ABstractMethodError?

Exception in thread "pool-1-thread-1" java.lang.AbstractMethodError:

Solution

  • The simple answer is this: some code is trying to call a method which is declared abstract. Abstract methods have no body and cannot be executed. Since you have provided so little information I can't really elaborate more on how this can happen since the compiler usually catches this problem - as described here, this means the class must have changed at runtime.
