Perhaps a convenient interface for the multiplexing part would be
data AsyncF a = forall r. AsyncF (Async r) (r -> a)
instance Functor AsyncF where fmap f (AsyncF a k) = AsyncF a (f . k)
waitSTMF :: AsyncF a -> STM (Either SomeException a) waitSTMF (AsyncF a k) = fmap (fmap k) (waitSTM a)
Good idea. In fact, I've added a Functor instance for Async itself - it required a bit of refactoring but didn't add much overhead.
So now you can simplify the interfaces of waitEither/waitAny et al?
[BTW, could you generate the new docs with --hyperlink-source?]
Hackage has the docs now: http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/async/2.0.1.0/doc/html/Control-C... Cheers, Simon
