    Default How to catch thrown exception

    Hi , the exception in the below code, how can I catch the exception it without the program crashing

    public void setFirstName(String firstName){
     
    	  if(firstName.length() < 2){
     
    		  throw new IllegalArgumentException("NAME LENGTH IS TOO SHORT! ");
    	  }
    	  this.firstName = firstName;
      }

    I want to catch it in the tester class


    public class Car_Tester{
       public static void main (String[] args){
     
          CarType1 c1 = new CarType1("B.M.W","Series 7",100,51000,true);
          System.out.println(c1.toString());
          c1.move();
     
          try{
            setPrice(int price);
          }
          catch(IllegalArgumentException e)
          {
            System.out.println(" error");
          }
     
       }

    In what way didn't it work? Did you get an error message?
