Control.Monad.Exception.Synchronous

Description

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.

Synopsis

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.

MonadFix (Exceptional e) Source #	I think it is not a good idea to use this instance, maybe we shoul remove it. It expects that the constructor is `Success` and the result is undefined otherwise. But if the constructor must always be `Success`, why using `Exceptional` then, at all?

Counterpart to either for Either.

force :: Exceptional e a -> Exceptional e a Source #

If you are sure that the value is always a Success you can tell that the run-time system thus making your program lazy. However, try to avoid this function by using catch and friends, since this function is partial.

manyT Source #

Arguments

:: Monad m
=> (e0 -> Maybe e1)	exception handler
-> (a -> b -> b)	`cons` function
-> b	empty
-> ExceptionalT e0 m a	atomic action to repeat
-> ExceptionalT e1 m b

Repeat an action until an exception occurs. Initialize the result with empty and add new elements using cons (e.g. [] and (:)). The exception handler decides whether the terminating exception is re-raised (Just) or catched (Nothing).

manyMonoidT Source #

Arguments

:: (Monad m, Monoid a)
=> (e0 -> Maybe e1)	exception handler
-> ExceptionalT e0 m a	atomic action to repeat
-> ExceptionalT e1 m a

mergeT :: (Monoid e, Monad m) => ExceptionalT e m (a -> b) -> ExceptionalT e m a -> ExceptionalT e m b infixl 4 Source #

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.
