Display actual exception class for ViewException

[jasonvarga]

When a ViewException is thrown, naturally the error page says ViewException.

Would it be possible to replace that with the actual exception?

Of course, we can look in the stack trace to see which exception was really thrown, but this could be more useful.

Which exception would you expect here?

I'd expect the error/exception that was originally thrown.

If I cause an error outside the view, I see my SpecificException:

Route::get('test', function () {
    throw new SpecificException('Oh no');
});

If I cause the exception while in the view, I get a ViewException:

Route::get('/', function () {
    $foo = function () {
        throw new SpecificException('Oh no');
    };
    return view('welcome', ['foo' => $foo]);
});

{{ $foo() }}

There's no easy way to see that it was my SpecificException.

This has been fixed via 1.3.3 of flare-client-php

Running composer update will pull that version in and you'll see the actual exception class instead of the view error.

Enjoy!
