[TYPO3-dev] use exceptions instead of die()?

[Ivan Gomez Rodriguez]

Hello,

We are developing an extension to manage exceptions to use in our
current and future developments.

We'll release this extension in the next weeks, and it will be upload to
TER but we have some improvements planned to do before.

Basically we define our exceptions classes and redefine some core and
third-party extensions behaviour in order to throw exceptions. In our
plugins we catch these exceptions, showing a error message to user and
sending a mail with exception info to us.

I attach here a prealpha version of our extension. If you want to try it
  first check this related bug :
