Sometimes you want to catch two different sorts of exception. You could
do something like

> f = expr `catch` \ (ex :: ArithException) -> handleArith ex
>          `catch` \ (ex :: IOException)    -> handleIO    ex

However, there are a couple of problems with this approach. The first is
that having two exception handlers is inefficient. However, the more
serious issue is that the second exception handler will catch exceptions
in the first, e.g. in the example above, if @handleArith@ throws an
@IOException@ then the second exception handler will catch it.

Instead, we provide a function 'catches', which would be used thus:

> f = expr `catches` [Handler (\ (ex :: ArithException) -> handleArith ex),
>                     Handler (\ (ex :: IOException)    -> handleIO    ex)]

-- Catching exceptions

{- $catching

There are several functions for catching and examining
exceptions; all of them may only be used from within the
'IO' monad.

Here's a rule of thumb for deciding which catch-style function to
use:

 * If you want to do some cleanup in the event that an exception
   is raised, use 'finally', 'bracket' or 'onException'.

 * To recover after an exception and do something else, the best
   choice is to use one of the 'try' family.

 * ... unless you are recovering from an asynchronous exception, in which
   case use 'catch' or 'catchJust'.

The difference between using 'try' and 'catch' for recovery is that in
'catch' the handler is inside an implicit 'mask' (see \"Asynchronous
Exceptions\") which is important when catching asynchronous
exceptions, but when catching other kinds of exception it is
unnecessary.  Furthermore it is possible to accidentally stay inside
the implicit 'mask' by tail-calling rather than returning from the
handler, which is why we recommend using 'try' rather than 'catch' for
ordinary exception recovery.

A typical use of 'tryJust' for recovery looks like this:

>  do r <- tryJust (guard . isDoesNotExistError) $ getEnv "HOME"
>     case r of
>       Left  e    -> ...
>       Right home -> ...

{- $async

 #AsynchronousExceptions# Asynchronous exceptions are so-called because they arise due to
external influences, and can be raised at any point during execution.
'StackOverflow' and 'HeapOverflow' are two examples of
system-generated asynchronous exceptions.

The primary source of asynchronous exceptions, however, is
'throwTo':

>  throwTo :: ThreadId -> Exception -> IO ()

'throwTo' (also 'Control.Concurrent.killThread') allows one
running thread to raise an arbitrary exception in another thread.  The
exception is therefore asynchronous with respect to the target thread,
which could be doing anything at the time it receives the exception.
Great care should be taken with asynchronous exceptions; it is all too
easy to introduce race conditions by the over zealous use of
'throwTo'.
-}

{- $block_handler
There\'s an implied 'mask' around every exception handler in a call
to one of the 'catch' family of functions.  This is because that is
what you want most of the time - it eliminates a common race condition
in starting an exception handler, because there may be no exception
handler on the stack to handle another exception if one arrives
immediately.  If asynchronous exceptions are masked on entering the
handler, though, we have time to install a new exception handler
before being interrupted.  If this weren\'t the default, one would have
to write something like

>      mask $ \restore ->
>           catch (restore (...))
>                 (\e -> handler)

If you need to unmask asynchronous exceptions again in the exception
handler, @restore@ can be used there too.

Note that 'try' and friends /do not/ have a similar default, because
there is no exception handler in this case.  Don't use 'try' for
recovering from an asynchronous exception.
-}

{- $interruptible

 #interruptible#
Some operations are /interruptible/, which means that they can receive
asynchronous exceptions even in the scope of a 'mask'.  Any function
which may itself block is defined as interruptible; this includes
'Control.Concurrent.MVar.takeMVar'
(but not 'Control.Concurrent.MVar.tryTakeMVar'),
and most operations which perform
some I\/O with the outside world.  The reason for having
interruptible operations is so that we can write things like

>      mask $ \restore -> do
>         a <- takeMVar m
>         catch (restore (...))
>               (\e -> ...)

if the 'Control.Concurrent.MVar.takeMVar' was not interruptible,
then this particular
combination could lead to deadlock, because the thread itself would be
blocked in a state where it can\'t receive any asynchronous exceptions.
With 'Control.Concurrent.MVar.takeMVar' interruptible, however, we can be
safe in the knowledge that the thread can receive exceptions right up
until the point when the 'Control.Concurrent.MVar.takeMVar' succeeds.
Similar arguments apply for other interruptible operations like
'System.IO.openFile'.

It is useful to think of 'mask' not as a way to completely prevent
asynchronous exceptions, but as a way to switch from asynchronous mode
to polling mode.  The main difficulty with asynchronous
exceptions is that they normally can occur anywhere, but within a
'mask' an asynchronous exception is only raised by operations that are
interruptible (or call other interruptible operations).  In many cases
these operations may themselves raise exceptions, such as I\/O errors,
so the caller will usually be prepared to handle exceptions arising from the
operation anyway.  To perform an explicit poll for asynchronous exceptions
inside 'mask', use 'allowInterrupt'.

Sometimes it is too onerous to handle exceptions in the middle of a
critical piece of stateful code.  There are three ways to handle this
kind of situation:

 * Use STM.  Since a transaction is always either completely executed
   or not at all, transactions are a good way to maintain invariants
   over state in the presence of asynchronous (and indeed synchronous)
   exceptions.

 * Use 'mask', and avoid interruptible operations.  In order to do
   this, we have to know which operations are interruptible.  It is
   impossible to know for any given library function whether it might
   invoke an interruptible operation internally; so instead we give a
   list of guaranteed-not-to-be-interruptible operations below.

 * Use 'uninterruptibleMask'.  This is generally not recommended,
   unless you can guarantee that any interruptible operations invoked
   during the scope of 'uninterruptibleMask' can only ever block for
   a short time.  Otherwise, 'uninterruptibleMask' is a good way to
   make your program deadlock and be unresponsive to user interrupts.

The following operations are guaranteed not to be interruptible:

 * operations on 'Data.IORef.IORef' from "Data.IORef"

 * STM transactions that do not use 'GHC.Conc.retry'

 * everything from the @Foreign@ modules

 * everything from "Control.Exception" except for 'throwTo'

 * 'Control.Concurrent.MVar.tryTakeMVar', 'Control.Concurrent.MVar.tryPutMVar',
   'Control.Concurrent.MVar.isEmptyMVar'

 * 'Control.Concurrent.MVar.takeMVar' if the 'Control.Concurrent.MVar.MVar' is
   definitely full, and conversely 'Control.Concurrent.MVar.putMVar' if the
   'Control.Concurrent.MVar.MVar' is definitely empty

 * 'Control.Concurrent.MVar.newEmptyMVar', 'Control.Concurrent.MVar.newMVar'

 * 'Control.Concurrent.forkIO', 'Control.Concurrent.myThreadId'

-}

{- $catchall

It is possible to catch all exceptions, by using the type 'SomeException':

> catch f (\e -> ... (e :: SomeException) ...)

HOWEVER, this is normally not what you want to do!

For example, suppose you want to read a file, but if it doesn't exist
then continue as if it contained \"\".  You might be tempted to just
catch all exceptions and return \"\" in the handler. However, this has
all sorts of undesirable consequences.  For example, if the user
presses control-C at just the right moment then the 'UserInterrupt'
exception will be caught, and the program will continue running under
the belief that the file contains \"\".  Similarly, if another thread
tries to kill the thread reading the file then the 'ThreadKilled'
exception will be ignored.

Instead, you should only catch exactly the exceptions that you really
want. In this case, this would likely be more specific than even
\"any IO exception\"; a permissions error would likely also want to be
handled differently. Instead, you would probably want something like:

> e <- tryJust (guard . isDoesNotExistError) (readFile f)
> let str = either (const "") id e

There are occasions when you really do need to catch any sort of
exception. However, in most cases this is just so you can do some
cleaning up; you aren't actually interested in the exception itself.
For example, if you open a file then you want to close it again,
whether processing the file executes normally or throws an exception.
However, in these cases you can use functions like 'bracket', 'finally'
and 'onException', which never actually pass you the exception, but
just call the cleanup functions at the appropriate points.

But sometimes you really do need to catch any exception, and actually
see what the exception is. One example is at the very top-level of a
program, you may wish to catch any exception, print it to a logfile or
the screen, and then exit gracefully. For these cases, you can use
'catch' (or one of the other exception-catching functions) with the
'SomeException' type.
