Java has the concept of an "Error" (extended from Throwable which is extended to be Exception too) which "indicates serious problems that a reasonable application should not try to catch. Most such errors are abnormal conditions." Perhaps normal E_ERROR => Exception, and totally fatal errors => Error. You can catch Errors too, but it's specifically said that you really shouldn't try.
