If the "piece of code" throws the exception you want - then you must
simply catch it - and then display the result:

String err;
bollean error_set;

try{
 error_set=false;
  //piece of code


}catch(UnknowHostException uh){

 err=new String(uh.getMessage());
  error_set=true;
  // now if err is set - you display it
}
