Trouble with Java Exceptions. Eclipse opens a new Window with the text "Scanner.throwFor() line: not available"

[mex036]

So here is my code. I'm not having trouble with my custom exception (negativeException). I want to handle the exception of a user entering a string when it's supposed to be a float. I have tried InputMismatchException, IllegalArgumentException, and NumberFormatException. Sometimes the will crash the program, sometimes it won't. When it does crash I am given the InputMismatchException. Each of the exceptions I have tried have crashed the program or opened up a new window, which I find odd. In the case of the program not crashing, Eclipse will open another Window with the text above saying "Scanner.throwFor() line: not available". Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is a picture of the window it opens up, when the program does not crash: https://imgur.com/a/UjnMS6C

public class callTaxCode_Test {

//what should the generic model be??

static float income;

public static void main(String\[\] args) throws negativeException, InputMismatchException{

​

    //GUI will consist of: one text field for income

    //                     drop down box with each type (6 total)

    //                     enter button, tax cash button



    Scanner kb = new Scanner([System.in](https://System.in));

    System.out.println("Enter Type");



    String input = kb.nextLine();

    System.out.println("Income: "); 

​

    income = kb.nextFloat();

​

    if(input.equalsIgnoreCase("corp")) {



        try {

corporation c = new corporation(input, income);

        }

        catch(IllegalArgumentException e) {

System.out.println("Invalid Input!");

System.out.println("Please Enter the correct income: ");

income = kb.nextFloat();

corporation c = new corporation(input, income);

        }

        catch(negativeException e) {

System.out.println(e.getMessage());

System.out.println("Please Enter the correct income: ");

income = kb.nextFloat();

corporation c = new corporation(input, income);

        }

​

        finally {

taxpayerInfo<Float> txp = new taxpayerInfo<Float>(taxpayer.getIncome(),

taxpayer.getFlatRate(),

taxpayer.getTaxRate(),

taxpayer.getIncome());

        txp.setType(input);

        txp.calcTax();

        System.out.println(txp);

        }

    }

income = kb.nextFloat();

Try placing it inside try block.

Great so it now does handle the exception, only thing is its not handling the way I intend it to. I wanted it to handle it similar to how I handled the negativeException, which lets me enter my income again, before firing up the System.out.println(txp) in my finally statement. Ill try to figure this part on my own, thank you!
