Description

Type classes for returning failures.

Synopsis

class Monad f => Failure e f where failure :: e -> f v class Failure e f => WrapFailure e f where wrapFailure :: (forall eIn. Exception eIn => eIn -> e) -> f a -> f a newtype StringException = StringException String failureString :: Failure StringException m => String -> m a class Try f where type Error f try :: Failure (Error f) f' => f a -> f' a data NothingException = NothingException data NullException = NullException

Type class

class Monad f => Failure e f where Source

Methods failure :: e -> f v Source Instances Exception e => Failure e IO Failure e [] Failure e Maybe

Wrapping failures

class Failure e f => WrapFailure e f where Source

Methods wrapFailure :: (forall eIn. Exception eIn => eIn -> e) -> f a -> f a Source Wrap the failure value, if any, with the given function. This is useful in particular when you want all the exceptions returned from a certain library to be of a certain type, even if they were generated by a different library. Instances Exception e => WrapFailure e IO

Convenience String failure

newtype StringException Source

Constructors StringException String Instances Show StringException Typeable StringException Exception StringException

failureString :: Failure StringException m => String -> m a Source

Call failure with a String.

Convert Failures into concrete types
