Exception Handling with @ControllerAdvice

@ControllerAdvice centralizes exception handling so you don't repeat try/catch blocks in every controller.

  • @ExceptionHandler(SomeException.class) targets a specific exception type
  • One @ControllerAdvice class can handle exceptions for ALL controllers
  • Combine with a custom ErrorResponse DTO for consistent JSON error shape
