I need to create a VendingMachineException class defined in
I need to create a VendingMachineException class defined in VendingMachineException.java. This class has a single constructor which takes a String, msg, and passes it to the parent Exception class. It also should contain a private String, error, with the value of \"***Error: Vending Machine–\"; and override the getMessage() method to prepend error to the message from the parent class and return to the caller. I have provided you with VendingMachine.java, which is intended to be used with the VendingMachineException class.
Throw a VendingMachineException under the following conditions: (A) in the buyItem() method; if no money has been deposited, throw an error message containing the user selection. (B) in the buyItem() method; if the item selected is not valid, throw an error message containing the user selection. (C) in the buyItem() method; if the selected item is out of stock, throw an error message containing the selected item description and price. (D) in the buyItem() method; if the money deposited is insufficient for the item cost, throw an error message containing the selected item description, price, and amount deposited so far by the user.
When throwing an exception, pass the appropriate text message to display the reason for the error. When the message indicates data from a variable, it uses the variable(s)–do not simply type the amount, selection, or price as text. Neither of the above classes should do any input or output.
