Synchronous exceptions immediately abort a series of computations.
We provide monads for describing this behaviour.
In contrast to ErrorT from mtl
or transformers
package
we do not pose restrictions on the exception type.
How to tell, that a function can possibly throw more than one (kind of) exception?
If you would use the exception type (Either ParserException IOError)
then this is different from (Either IOError ParserException)
.
Thus we recommned using type classes for exceptions.
Then you can use one type containing all exceptions in an application,
but the type signature still tells which exceptions are actually possible.
Examples:
parser :: ParserException e => ExceptionalT e ParserMonad a getLine :: IOException e => ExceptionalT e IO String fileParser :: (ParserException e, IOException e) => ExceptionalT e IO String
Unfortunately, this way you cannot remove single exceptions
from the constraints by catching them.
You can only remove all of them using resolve
or none.
For a more advanced approach,
that allows removing exceptions constraints
by some non-Haskell-98 type hackery,
see the exception package by Joseph Iborra.

Documentation
data Exceptional e a Source #
Like Either
, but explicitly intended for handling of exceptional results.
In contrast to Either
we do not support fail
.
Calling fail
in the Exceptional
monad is an error.
This way, we do not require that an exception can be derived from a String
,
yet, we require no constraint on the exception type at all.

This combines two actions similar to Applicative's *
.
The result action fails if one of the input action fails,
but both actions are executed.
E.g. consider a compiler that emits all errors
that can be detected independently,
but eventually aborts if there is at least one error.
The exception type e
might be a list type,
or an Endo
type that implements a difflist.
