Triggering 404 response in Cobalt Website

Is it possible to trigger a 404 response in Cobalt Website by just throwing a certain exception? E.g. something like

throw new Http404Exception();

that would get picked up in Global.asax and have the response code set appropriately. Or do I need to manually manage this response?

I've seen people use this...

throw new HttpException(404, errorMessage, exception);

I haven't verified if it "has the response code set appropriately", but it may be what you're looking for.

Thanks. That seems to work but I don't seem to get a friendly 404 page back. Not sure if that's caused by GTLR Maxwell Website not being configured correctly for 404s or this method of triggering them bypassing our normal flow.
