ExceptionHandlerFactory is a factory object that creates (if needed) and returns a new ExceptionHandler instance.

   ExceptionHandlerFactory factory = (ExceptionHandlerFactory)
    FactoryFinder.getFactory(FactoryFinder.EXCEPTION_HANDLER_FACTORY);

getExceptionHandler

public abstract ExceptionHandler getExceptionHandler()

Create and return a A new ExceptionHandler instance. The implementation must return an ExceptionHandler instance suitable for the environment. For example, in some cases it may be desirable for an ExceptionHandler to write error information to the response instead of throwing exceptions as in the case of Ajax applications.
