Hi, cafe,

I'm working in a program where I use many connections with Network.HTTP. Sometimes, connections are closed while my program is reading them, and an error appears:

<socket: XXX>: Data.ByteString.hGetLine: invalid argument (Bad file descriptor)

All I need is to handle this error. The function 'catch' doesn't work. I guess this error comes from a call to 'error' function, or something similar.

Control.Exception.catch can catch error calls. If you're using Prelude.catch, you probably should switch.

What I can do?

Thanks in advance, Daniel Díaz
