Bio.Iteratee.Exception

Contents

Description

Monadic and General Iteratees: Messaging and exception handling.

Iteratees use an internal exception handling mechanism that is parallel to that provided by Exception. This allows the iteratee framework to handle its own exceptions outside IO.

Iteratee exceptions are divided into two categories, IterException and EnumException. IterExceptions are exceptions within an iteratee, and EnumExceptions are exceptions within an enumerator.

Enumerators can be constructed to handle an IterException with Data.Iteratee.Iteratee.enumFromCallbackCatch. If the enumerator detects an iteratee exception, the enumerator calls the provided exception handler. The enumerator is then able to continue feeding data to the iteratee, provided the exception was successfully handled. If the handler could not handle the exception, the IterException is converted to an EnumException and processing aborts.

Exceptions can also be cleared by Data.Iteratee.Iteratee.checkErr, although in this case the iteratee continuation cannot be recovered.

When viewed as Resumable Exceptions, iteratee exceptions provide a means for iteratees to send control messages to enumerators. The seek implementation provides an example. Data.Iteratee.Iteratee.seek stores the current iteratee continuation and throws a SeekException, which inherits from IterException. Data.Iteratee.IO.enumHandleRandom is constructed with enumFromCallbackCatch and a handler that performs an hSeek. Upon receiving the SeekException, enumHandleRandom calls the handler, checks that it executed properly, and then continues with the stored continuation.

As the exception hierarchy is open, users can extend it with custom exceptions and exception handlers to implement sophisticated messaging systems based upon resumable exceptions.

Synopsis

Exception types

data IFException Source #

Root of the Iteratee exception hierarchy. IFException derives from Control.Exception.SomeException. EnumException, IterException, and all inheritants are descendents of IFException.

Constructors

Exception e => IFException e 

class (Typeable e, Show e) => Exception e where #

Any type that you wish to throw or catch as an exception must be an instance of the Exception class. The simplest case is a new exception type directly below the root:

data MyException = ThisException | ThatException
    deriving Show

instance Exception MyException

The default method definitions in the Exception class do what we need in this case. You can now throw and catch ThisException and ThatException as exceptions:

*Main> throw ThisException `catch` \e -> putStrLn ("Caught " ++ show (e :: MyException))
Caught ThisException

In more complicated examples, you may wish to define a whole hierarchy of exceptions:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Make the root exception type for all the exceptions in a compiler

data SomeCompilerException = forall e . Exception e => SomeCompilerException e

instance Show SomeCompilerException where
    show (SomeCompilerException e) = show e

instance Exception SomeCompilerException

compilerExceptionToException :: Exception e => e -> SomeException
compilerExceptionToException = toException . SomeCompilerException

compilerExceptionFromException :: Exception e => SomeException -> Maybe e
compilerExceptionFromException x = do
    SomeCompilerException a <- fromException x
    cast a

---------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Make a subhierarchy for exceptions in the frontend of the compiler

data SomeFrontendException = forall e . Exception e => SomeFrontendException e

instance Show SomeFrontendException where
    show (SomeFrontendException e) = show e

instance Exception SomeFrontendException where
    toException = compilerExceptionToException
    fromException = compilerExceptionFromException

frontendExceptionToException :: Exception e => e -> SomeException
frontendExceptionToException = toException . SomeFrontendException

frontendExceptionFromException :: Exception e => SomeException -> Maybe e
frontendExceptionFromException x = do
    SomeFrontendException a <- fromException x
    cast a

---------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Make an exception type for a particular frontend compiler exception

data MismatchedParentheses = MismatchedParentheses
    deriving Show

instance Exception MismatchedParentheses where
    toException   = frontendExceptionToException
    fromException = frontendExceptionFromException

We can now catch a MismatchedParentheses exception as MismatchedParentheses, SomeFrontendException or SomeCompilerException, but not other types, e.g. IOException:

*Main> throw MismatchedParentheses `catch` \e -> putStrLn ("Caught " ++ show (e :: MismatchedParentheses))
Caught MismatchedParentheses
*Main> throw MismatchedParentheses `catch` \e -> putStrLn ("Caught " ++ show (e :: SomeFrontendException))
Caught MismatchedParentheses
*Main> throw MismatchedParentheses `catch` \e -> putStrLn ("Caught " ++ show (e :: SomeCompilerException))
Caught MismatchedParentheses
*Main> throw MismatchedParentheses `catch` \e -> putStrLn ("Caught " ++ show (e :: IOException))
*** Exception: MismatchedParentheses
