I’m now back to my daily work at SensioLabs after some days spent at Cologne, mostly for the Symfony Day 2011. It was truly great to be there. I had the chance to put faces on twitter nicknames and to talk in front of the crowd. I was a bit nervous and wasn’t as relaxed as I would liked to be. I will try to work on my english pronunciation for the next times.

What is sfException?

As the sfException phpDoc says:

sfException is the base class for all symfony related exceptions and provides an additional method for printing up a detailed view of an exception.

If you look at the code of sfException you’ll see that sfException has a bunch of tool to wrap an exception inside an sfException. That’s why when an exception of any kind is thrown in symfony, you see a nice html output.
