A developer to handle global exception should use _________ annotation along with @ExceptionHandler method annotation...

The @ControllerAdvice annotation is used in Spring Framework to handle exceptions globally across the whole application, not just to an individual controller. It allows you to handle exceptions across multiple @Controllers. This annotation is used alongside @ExceptionHandler to define a global exception handling mechanism.

Here’s how it works:

The @ExceptionHandler annotation is used to define methods in your @ControllerAdvice class that will handle exceptions.

When an exception is thrown, the Spring Framework checks for a matching @ExceptionHandler method in a @ControllerAdvice class.

If a match is found, the exception is handled by the method annotated with @ExceptionHandler.
