Checked exceptions are types of exceptions, which are beyond the control of programs.say I/O exception, RemoteException.This could happen, when the resource you were looking was not found(e.g file missing or remote server is down).Unchecked exceptions are Runtime excpetions, which happens due to programmatic errors,wrong data etc.,

Mainly exceptions are two types Checked Exceptions and unchecked exceptions.Checked exceptions are handled by the use and unchecked exceptions are handled by JVM.Explicit handling is not needed.

We have two type of exception , checked and unchecked. checked exc. allways says that it is return in try catch or throws block. all user define exception come under this . and unchecked say there is no need to write code inside try catch block.......

Checked Exceptions :

1)Indicate most conditions that a reasonable application might want to catch

2)"throws "clause checked by the compiler.

3)Not subclass of RuntimeException.

Unchecked Exceptions:

1)Indicate serious problem that a reasonable application should not try to catch and exceptions that can be thrown during the normal operation of the JVM.

2)Not checked by the compiler.

3)subclass of RuntimeException Class

        Checked Exceptions are not because of program errors, may be some out side sources,like file open exception.(may likely to be occured) Unchecked exceptions are because of program errors like array index out of bounds, NUll pointer ,Bad Cast exceptions etc. Checked Exceptions are checked at compile time,where as unchecked exceptiosn are at runtime.

The differences between checked and unchecked exceptions are:

Checked exceptions must be explicitly caught or propagated as described in Basic try-catch-finally Exception Handling. Unchecked exceptions do not have this requirement. They don't have to be caught or declared thrown.

Checked exceptions in Java extend the java.lang.Exception class. Unchecked exceptions extend the java.lang.RuntimeException.

checked exceptions are sub classes of java.lang.IOException(these are compile time exceptions)

unchecked exceptions are sub classes of java.lang.Runtime exception(these are runtime exceptions)
