Last active August 29, 2015 13:55
Show a custom error page for a custom exception. For example, when trying to access a non-existent database record (app/people/details/9999999).
// You could put more information and functionality here if you want.
// I just needed an exception distinguishable from other exceptions.
// I implemented a "FindOrDie" method in my repository code, from which
// I throw this exception whenever a query comes up empty.
