I am trying to use the Cont in Control.Monad.Cont but it seems to be missing
Prelude> import Control.Monad.Cont Prelude Control.Monad.Cont> :t Cont
It's gone; try "cont" (lowercase). mtl2 replaced the old standalone monads with monad transformers over the Identity monad (so Cont is a type alias for ContT Identity); however, it's not possible to create data constructors for type aliases, so the Cont data constructor is gone and a "cont" smart constructor has taken its place. Prelude Control.Monad.Cont> :t cont cont :: ((a -> r) -> r) -> Cont r a The same is true of State, Reader, and Writer. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
