Hi,Thanks for the library.
Im having an issue and Im hoping you could help.
I'm using Codeigniter 3.

application/config/hooks.php

$hook['pre_controller'][] = array(
    'class' => 'MY_Exceptions',
    'function' => 'log_exception',
    'filename' => 'MY_Exceptions.php',
    'filepath' => 'libraries'
);

In application/libraries/MY_Exceptions.php

class MY_Exceptions extends CI_Exceptions {

    function __construct() {
        parent::__construct();
    }

    function log_exception($severity, $message, $filepath, $line) {
        echo 'handling errors.';
    }

}

I keep getting Class 'CI_Exceptions' not found. Thoughts?

You need to set
$config['subclass_prefix'] = 'MY_'; in config.php file

Did you ever find the solution to this @lomse
I have $config['subclass_prefix'] = 'MY_';

but still getting Class 'CI_Exceptions' not found
