# Documentation

module Control.Exception

class MonadIO m => ExceptionMonad m where Source #

A monad that can catch exceptions. A minimal definition requires a definition of `gcatch`.

Implementations on top of `IO` should implement `gmask` to eventually call the primitive `mask`. These are used for implementations that support asynchronous exceptions. The default implementations of `gbracket` and `gfinally` use `gmask` thus rarely require overriding.

Minimal complete definition

gcatch, gmask

Methods

gcatch :: Exception e => m a -> (e -> m a) -> m a Source #

Generalised version of `catch`, allowing an arbitrary exception handling monad instead of just `IO`.

gmask :: ((m a -> m a) -> m b) -> m b Source #

Generalised version of `mask_`, allowing an arbitrary exception handling monad instead of just `IO`.

gbracket :: m a -> (a -> m b) -> (a -> m c) -> m c Source #

Generalised version of `bracket`, allowing an arbitrary exception handling monad instead of just `IO`.

gfinally :: m a -> m b -> m a Source #

Generalised version of `finally`, allowing an arbitrary exception handling monad instead of just `IO`.

gonException :: ExceptionMonad m => m a -> m b -> m a Source #

Always executes the first argument. If this throws an exception the second argument is executed and the exception is raised again.
