How do exception handling mechanisms differ between C++ and Java?

C++ uses a combination of try-catch blocks and the 'throw' keyword, while Java has a more structured approach with checked and unchecked exceptions.

What are checked and unchecked exceptions in Java?

Checked exceptions are exceptions that must be either caught or declared in the method signature, while unchecked exceptions do not require this.

Can you give an example of a checked exception in Java?

Sure! An example of a checked exception is 'IOException', which must be handled or declared in the method.

How does C++ handle exceptions differently?

C++ does not have checked exceptions; all exceptions are unchecked, and it's up to the programmer to handle them appropriately.
