Throwing the right kind of exceptions is particularly enforced by [[exception handling#Checked exceptions|checked exceptions]] in the [[Java (programming language)|Java programming language]], and starting with language version 1.4 almost all exceptions support chaining.

In runtime engine environments such as Java or .NetNET there exist tools that attach to the runtime engine and every time that an exception of interest occurs they record debugging information that existed in memory at the time the exception was thrown (stack and heap values). These tools are called Exception Interception and they provide "root-cause" information for exceptions in Java programs that run in production, testing, or development environments.
