Changing behaviour on missing files

[Alex Washtell]

It seems by default that if you .Add() a file that is missing, a System.IO.FileNotFoundException when it tries to read the file. Is it possible to change this behaviour, either to another configurable option or by referencing our own custom code? 

I'm thinking that if possible it would just skip the file. Ideally if we could reference custom code then we could log the issue so it can get fixed. I can see why the default would be a catastrophic error, but for our purposes it would be better to handle it differently (i.e. a partially working front-end is preferable to a broken page).

This seems like a good use case for extension methods.  Something like this (untested)

public static BundleBase<T> AddCustom(this BundleBase<T> bundle, string filePath) {

if(File.Exists(Server.MapPath(filePath))) { 

bundle.Add(filePath);

 }

else {

//do some logging stuff

} 

 return bundle; 

}

If there's nothing specifically to cater for it within SquishIt, that seems like a good approach, thanks.
