Hello all, I am currently playing with the new cadre of failure libraries, and I'm trying to figure out how to use the monadic version of Failure while also getting the Try typeclass, which appears to be the standardized mechanism for marshalling values from specific monads into the failure monad. Unfortunately, it only seems to be defined when I import Control.Failure, and this module is fairly incompatible with Control.Monad.Failure, as demonstrated by this GHCI transcript: ezyang@javelin:~/Documents/tmr$ ghci Prelude> :m +Control.Failure Prelude Control.Failure> :m +Control.Monad.Failure Prelude Control.Failure Control.Monad.Failure> :t failure <interactive>:1:0: Ambiguous occurrence `failure' It could refer to either `Control.Failure.failure', imported from Control.Failure or `Control.Monad.Failure.failure', imported from Control.Monad.Failure I'm using MTL, which might be the reason why there's all sorts of unhappiness. :-) Cheers, Edward
