 NOTE: Certain exceptions are only rescuable from the ApplicationController class, as they are raised before the controller gets initialized and the action gets executed. See Partik Naik's link:http://m.onkey.org/2008/7/20/rescue-from-dispatching[article] on the subject for more information.

-=== Getting down and dirty ===
-
-Of course you can still use Ruby's `rescue` to rescue exceptions wherever you want. This is usually constrained to single methods, i.e. actions, but is still a very useful technique that should be used when appropriate. For example, you might use an API that raises a timeout error in one of your actions, and you have to handle that if it's raised:
-
-[source, ruby]
-----------------------------------------
-require 'clients_international'
-class ClientsController < ApplicationController
-
-  def update
-    @client = Client.find(params[:id])
-    @client.attributes = params[:client]
-    if @client.save
-      flash[:notice] = "Client was updated"
-      ClientsInternational.send_update(@client.to_xml)
-      redirect_to clients_url
-    else
-      render :action => "new"
-    end
-  rescue ClientsInternational::TimeoutError
-    flash[:error] = "Couldn't send API update"
-    redirect_to @client
-  end
-
-end
