Hi, I am using Haskell to write Alfred programs, but I have run into an issue I just can not fix. The routine for reading a data file in a application specific location for Alfred never detects the file as non-existant. It then dies on the read. Here is the code: getAlfredCacheFileContents :: String -> IO (String) getAlfredCacheFileContents fileName = do h <- getHomeDirectory fExist <- doesFileExist $ h ++ cacheDirBasic ++ getBundleID ++ "/" ++ fileName if fExist then do contents <- readFile $ h ++ cacheDirBasic ++ getBundleID ++ "/" ++ fileName return contents else return "" I just installed the latest version on my Mac Air. It always does the call to readFile, even when the file doesn't exist. -- Sent with Postbox http://www.getpostbox.com
