UnliftIO.Exception

Description

Unlifted Control.Exception, with extra async exception safety and more helper functions.

This module works best when your cleanup functions adhere to certain expectations around exception safety and interruptible actions. For more details, see this exception safety tutorial.

Synopsis

Throwing

throwIO :: (MonadIO m, Exception e) => e -> m a Source #

Synchronously throw the given exception.

Note that, if you provide an exception value which is of an asynchronous type, it will be wrapped up in SyncExceptionWrapper. See toSyncException.

Since: 0.1.0.0

throwString :: (MonadIO m, HasCallStack) => String -> m a Source #

A convenience function for throwing a user error. This is useful for cases where it would be too high a burden to define your own exception type.

This throws an exception of type StringException. When GHC supports it (base 4.9 and GHC 8.0 and onward), it includes a call stack.

Since: 0.1.0.0

data StringException Source #

Exception type thrown by throwString.

Note that the second field of the data constructor depends on GHC/base version. For base 4.9 and GHC 8.0 and later, the second field is a call stack. Previous versions of GHC and base do not support call stacks, and the field is simply unit (provided to make pattern matching across GHC versions easier).

Since: 0.1.0.0

stringException :: HasCallStack => String -> StringException Source #

Smart constructor for a StringException that deals with the call stack.

Since: 0.1.0.0

throwTo :: (Exception e, MonadIO m) => ThreadId -> e -> m () Source #

Throw an asynchronous exception to another thread.

Synchronously typed exceptions will be wrapped into an AsyncExceptionWrapper, see https://github.com/fpco/safe-exceptions#determining-sync-vs-async.

It's usually a better idea to use the UnliftIO.Async module, see https://github.com/fpco/safe-exceptions#quickstart.

Since: 0.1.0.0

impureThrow :: Exception e => e -> a Source #

Generate a pure value which, when forced, will synchronously throw the given exception.

Generally it's better to avoid using this function and instead use throwIO, see https://github.com/fpco/safe-exceptions#quickstart.

Since: 0.1.0.0

fromEither :: (Exception e, MonadIO m) => Either e a -> m a Source #

Unwrap an Either value, throwing its Left value as a runtime exception via throwIO if present.

Since: 0.1.0.0

fromEitherIO :: (Exception e, MonadIO m) => IO (Either e a) -> m a Source #

Same as fromEither, but works on an IO-wrapped Either.

Since: 0.1.0.0

fromEitherM :: (Exception e, MonadIO m) => m (Either e a) -> m a Source #

Same as fromEither, but works on an m-wrapped Either.

Since: 0.1.0.0

mapExceptionM :: (Exception e1, Exception e2, MonadUnliftIO m) => (e1 -> e2) -> m a -> m a Source #

Same as mapException, except works in a monadic context.

Since: 0.2.15

Catching (with recovery)

catch Source #

Arguments

:: (MonadUnliftIO m, Exception e) 
=> m a

action

-> (e -> m a)

handler

-> m a 

Catch a synchronous (but not asynchronous) exception and recover from it.

This is parameterized on the exception type. To catch all synchronous exceptions, use catchAny.

Since: 0.1.0.0

catchIO :: MonadUnliftIO m => m a -> (IOException -> m a) -> m a Source #

catch specialized to only catching IOExceptions.

Since: 0.1.0.0

Since: 0.1.0.0

catchJust :: (MonadUnliftIO m, Exception e) => (e -> Maybe b) -> m a -> (b -> m a) -> m a Source #

catchJust is like catch but it takes an extra argument which is an exception predicate, a function which selects which type of exceptions we're interested in.

Since: 0.1.0.0

handle :: (MonadUnliftIO m, Exception e) => (e -> m a) -> m a -> m a Source #

Flipped version of catch.

try specialized to only catching IOExceptions.

Since: 0.1.0.0

tryAny :: MonadUnliftIO m => m a -> m (Either SomeException a) Source #

try specialized to catch all synchronous exceptions.

Since: 0.1.0.0

tryDeep :: (MonadUnliftIO m, Exception e, NFData a) => m a -> m (Either e a) Source #

Since: 0.1.0.0

Constructors

forall e.Exception e => Handler (e -> m a) 

catches :: MonadUnliftIO m => m a -> [Handler m a] -> m a Source #

Similar to catch, but provides multiple different handler functions.

For more information on motivation, see base's catches. Note that, unlike that function, this function will not catch asynchronous exceptions.

Since: 0.1.0.0

catchesDeep :: (MonadUnliftIO m, NFData a) => m a -> [Handler m a] -> m a Source #

Same as catches, but fully force evaluation of the result value to find all impure exceptions.

Since: 0.1.0.0

Catching async exceptions (with recovery)

catchSyncOrAsync :: (MonadUnliftIO m, Exception e) => m a -> (e -> m a) -> m a Source #

A variant of catch that catches both synchronous and asynchronous exceptions.

WARNING: This function (and other *SyncOrAsync functions) is for advanced users. Most of the time, you probably want to use the non-SyncOrAsync versions.

Before attempting to use this function, be familiar with the "Rules for async safe handling" section in this blog post.

Since: 0.2.17

handleSyncOrAsync :: (MonadUnliftIO m, Exception e) => (e -> m a) -> m a -> m a Source #

A variant of handle that catches both synchronous and asynchronous exceptions.

See catchSyncOrAsync.

Since: 0.2.17

trySyncOrAsync :: (MonadUnliftIO m, Exception e) => m a -> m (Either e a) Source #

A variant of try that catches both synchronous and asynchronous exceptions.

See catchSyncOrAsync.

Since: 0.2.17

Cleanup (no recovery)

onException :: MonadUnliftIO m => m a -> m b -> m a Source #

Like finally, but only call after if an exception occurs.

Since: 0.1.0.0

bracket :: MonadUnliftIO m => m a -> (a -> m b) -> (a -> m c) -> m c Source #

Allocate and clean up a resource safely.

For more information on motivation and usage of this function, see base's bracket. This function has two differences from the one in base. The first, and more obvious, is that it works on any MonadUnliftIO instance, not just IO.

The more subtle difference is that this function will use uninterruptible masking for its cleanup handler. This is a subtle distinction, but at a high level, means that resource cleanup has more guarantees to complete. This comes at the cost that an incorrectly written cleanup function cannot be interrupted.

For more information, please see https://github.com/fpco/safe-exceptions/issues/3.

Since: 0.1.0.0

bracket_ :: MonadUnliftIO m => m a -> m b -> m c -> m c Source #

Same as bracket, but does not pass the acquired resource to cleanup and use functions.

For more information, see base's bracket_.

Since: 0.1.0.0

finally Source #

Arguments

:: MonadUnliftIO m 
=> m a

thing

-> m b

after

-> m a 

Perform thing, guaranteeing that after will run after, even if an exception occurs.

Same interruptible vs uninterrupible points apply as with bracket. See base's finally for more information.

Since: 0.1.0.0

withException :: (MonadUnliftIO m, Exception e) => m a -> (e -> m b) -> m a Source #

Like onException, but provides the handler the thrown exception.

Since: 0.1.0.0

bracketOnError :: MonadUnliftIO m => m a -> (a -> m b) -> (a -> m c) -> m c Source #

Same as bracket, but only perform the cleanup if an exception is thrown.

Since: 0.1.0.0

bracketOnError_ :: MonadUnliftIO m => m a -> m b -> m c -> m c Source #

A variant of bracketOnError where the return value from the first computation is not required.

Since: 0.1.0.0

Coercion to sync and async

data SyncExceptionWrapper Source #

Wrap up an asynchronous exception to be treated as a synchronous exception.

This is intended to be created via toSyncException.

Since: 0.1.0.0

Constructors

forall e.Exception e => SyncExceptionWrapper e 

toSyncException :: Exception e => e -> SomeException Source #

Convert an exception into a synchronous exception.

For synchronous exceptions, this is the same as toException. For asynchronous exceptions, this will wrap up the exception with SyncExceptionWrapper.

Since: 0.1.0.0

data AsyncExceptionWrapper Source #

Wrap up a synchronous exception to be treated as an asynchronous exception.

This is intended to be created via toAsyncException.

Since: 0.1.0.0

Constructors

forall e.Exception e => AsyncExceptionWrapper e 

toAsyncException :: Exception e => e -> SomeException Source #

Convert an exception into an asynchronous exception.

For asynchronous exceptions, this is the same as toException. For synchronous exceptions, this will wrap up the exception with AsyncExceptionWrapper.

Since: 0.1.0.0

fromExceptionUnwrap :: Exception e => SomeException -> Maybe e Source #

Convert from a possibly wrapped exception.

The inverse of toAsyncException and toSyncException. When using those functions (or functions that use them, like throwTo or throwIO), fromException might not be sufficient because the exception might be wrapped within SyncExceptionWrapper or AsyncExceptionWrapper.

Since: 0.2.17

Check exception type

isSyncException :: Exception e => e -> Bool Source #

Check if the given exception is synchronous.

Since: 0.1.0.0

isAsyncException :: Exception e => e -> Bool Source #

Check if the given exception is asynchronous.

Since: 0.1.0.0

Unlifted version of mask.

Since: 0.1.0.0

Unlifted version of uninterruptibleMask.

Since: 0.1.0.0

Unlifted version of mask_.

Since: 0.1.0.0

uninterruptibleMask_ :: MonadUnliftIO m => m a -> m a Source #

Since: 0.1.0.0

Evaluation

evaluate :: MonadIO m => a -> m a Source #

Lifted version of evaluate.

Since: 0.1.0.0

evaluateDeep :: (MonadIO m, NFData a) => a -> m a Source #

Deeply evaluate a value using evaluate and NFData.

Since: 0.1.0.0

Reexports

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

assert :: Bool -> a -> a #

If the first argument evaluates to True, then the result is the second argument. Otherwise an AssertionFailed exception is raised, containing a String with the source file and line number of the call to assert.

Assertions can normally be turned on or off with a compiler flag (for GHC, assertions are normally on unless optimisation is turned on with -O or the -fignore-asserts option is given). When assertions are turned off, the first argument to assert is ignored, and the second argument is returned as the result.
