Exception handling with inheritance

[Andrea Asta]

Is it possibile to use Spark.exception and set a "high-level" exception to catch also its children?

For example if I do exception(Exception.class... catch every exception even if of a subclass.

Thanks

Any news on this?

Sorry it's working with the current version.

Thanks

This is already the case. Having an Exception Handler for Exception.class will catch Exception.class and any class extending Exception.

Eg. Your Route throws a RuntimeException. You have an Exception Handler catching Exception.class. RuntimeException extends Exception and is handled. Happy days!

get("/client-error", (request, response) -> {
    throw new RuntimeException("Forced RuntimeException");
});


exception(Exception.class, (exception, request, response) -> {
    response.status(400);
    response.body("This handler catches all exceptions.");
});
