Hi Michael,

If you are talking about the generation of the response's representation, I think it is simpler to throw a ResourceException with your own error status and error description. Then, you can use the standard status filter or a customized one. I send you a sample code that illustrates both cases. If you think this is too limited according to your needs, then you surely will have to handle this directly in the Resource#represent method and set the right entity to the response object.

best regards,
Thierry Boileau

Are there best practices for error handling?  I am extending a Resource object
overriding the represent method.  What is the be approach for returning an error
to the user?  Should I throw a ResourceException (as defined by the interface)
or should I add the exception/error information to the Response?  Or Both?

Thanks
