Answer 2

Well, to be blunt, you should probably not try to handle a Stack Overflow exception.

In some cases, you can't execute code in response to a stack overflow exception, since that code requires stack space, which is unavailable, hence double-fault.

Instead, you should change the code so as to avoid it completely.

This might mean changing your algorithm to some other algorithm, or possibly implementing the stack-based recursion in your own stack and switch to a loop instead.

Stack overflow is most often related to recursive calls, and not the gc.

GC would throw you an out of memory exception.

public static void main(String args[])
{
        try 
    {
            LongRecursiveMethodOrSomethingLikeThat();
        } catch(StackOverflowError t) {
            // Generic catch// catch(Error e)
            // anything: catch(Throwable t)
            System.out.println("Error:"+t);
            t.printStackTrace();
}
