ExceptionHandler

PrimeFaces provides a powerful ExceptionHandler out of the box with following features:

  • featuring support for AJAX and non-AJAX requests
  • ability to use error-page configuration in web.xml
  • an EL extension called #{pfExceptionHandler} to provide information about the exception
  • p:ajaxExceptionHandler component to customize AJAX exception handling on the current view
