# Rescue exceptions raised in controller actions.
#
# rescue_from receives a series of exception classes or class
# names, and a trailing :with option with the name of a method
# or a Proc object to be called to handle them. Alternatively a block can
# be given.
#
# Handlers that take one argument will be called with the exception, so
# that the exception can be inspected when dealing with it.
#
# Handlers are inherited. They are searched from right to left, from
# bottom to top, and up the hierarchy. The handler of the first class for
# which exception.is_a?(klass) holds true is the one invoked, if
# any.
#
# class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
# rescue_from User::NotAuthorized, :with => :deny_access # self defined exception
# rescue_from ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid, :with => :show_errors
#
# rescue_from 'MyAppError::Base' do |exception|
# render :xml => exception, :status => 500
# end

# protected
# def deny_access
# ...

# Since this loop needs the constants it would be inconsistent to
# assume they should exist at this point. An early raised exception
# could trigger some other handler and the array could include
# precisely a string whose corresponding constant has not yet been
# seen. This is why we are tolerant to unknown constants.
#
# Note that this tolerance only matters if the exception was given as
# a string, otherwise a NameError will be raised by the interpreter
# itself when rescue_from CONSTANT is executed.
