Spring MVC controller advice for handling custom exceptions

RestExceptionHandler.java

import java.util.Map;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.web.servlet.error.ErrorAttributes;
import org.springframework.http.HttpStatus;
import org.springframework.http.ResponseEntity;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ControllerAdvice;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ExceptionHandler;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ResponseBody;
import org.springframework.web.context.request.ServletWebRequest;

@ControllerAdvice
@ResponseBody
public class RestExceptionHandler {

  private final ErrorAttributes errorAttributes;

  @Autowired
  public RestExceptionHandler(ErrorAttributes errorAttributes) {
    this.errorAttributes = errorAttributes;
  }

  @ExceptionHandler({NotFoundException.class})
  public ResponseEntity<?> handleCustomExceptions(
      HttpServletRequest request) {
    return respondWith(request, HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND);
  }

  private ResponseEntity<?> respondWith(HttpServletRequest request,
                                        HttpStatus status) {
    Map<String, Object> body = getErrorAttributes(request);
    body.put("status", status.value());
    return new ResponseEntity<>(body, status);
  }

  private Map<String, Object> getErrorAttributes(HttpServletRequest request) {
    final ServletWebRequest webRequest = new ServletWebRequest(request);
    return errorAttributes.getErrorAttributes(webRequest, false);
  }
}

Uses the same strategy as BasicErrorController's error method:
