Equivalent of Zend_Controller_Plugin_ErrorHandler and Zend_Controller_Action_Exception in Zend framework 2

Question

What's the equivalent of Zend_Controller_Plugin_ErrorHandler and Zend_Controller_Action_Exception in Zend framework 2? I am used to writing an ErrorController in past versions of the framework (eg http://framework.zend.com/manual/1.12/en/zend.controller.plugins.html) but now am using version two and I can't find any examples of how you write a custom error handler.

In my instance I am writing a REST server and would like to throw exceptions that correspond to particular HTTP error codes.

From what I can tell, it appears I might need to write my own custom version of Zend\Mvc\View\Http\ExceptionStrategy which is invoked by Zend\Mvc\View\Http\ViewManager

ZF2 does not have something that is really equivalent to the Error Handler with an ErrorController in ZF1. I don't recommend trying to implement something similiar in ZF2 (because it works very, very different).

In your case, I would simply use the default Zend\Mvc\View\Http\ExceptionStrategy, and then use the view script to differentiate between different error codes and types of requests.
