Re: Status of exception handling

fw:

What's the status of exception handling? A couple of years ago, I think it wasn't clear how to do that in the Haskell context. Are there any GHC extensions which provide means to retry on temporary errors, without passing too much status around?

We use exceptions freely, though they do tend to be used for the more exceptional events. Check Control.Exception for the full story, and some other things in Control.Concurrent. -- Don
