Package io.undertow.servlet.api
Interface ExceptionHandler
- All Known Implementing Classes:
LoggingExceptionHandler
public interface ExceptionHandler
An exception handler allows you to perform custom actions when an exception propagates out of the servlet
handler chain. The default handler will simply log the exception, however it is possible to write custom
handlers to handle the error however you want. A common use for this would be to change the log format for
exceptions, or possibly suppress the logging for certain exceptions types.
Implementations of this interface may also choose to suppress error page handler, and handle error page generation
internally by returning true

handleThrowable
boolean handleThrowable(io.undertow.server.HttpServerExchange exchange, javax.servlet.ServletRequest request, javax.servlet.ServletResponse response, Throwable throwable) Handles an exception. If this method returns true then the request/response cycle is considered to be finished, and no further action will take place, if this returns false then standard error page redirect will take place. The default implementation of this simply logs the exception and returns false, allowing error page and async context error handling to proceed as normal.- Parameters:
