Package: libghc-safe-exceptions-doc (0.1.7.0-4)

[ Source: haskell-safe-exceptions  ]

safe, consistent, and easy exception handling; documentation

This package provides additional safety and simplicity versus Control.Exception by having its functions recognize the difference between synchronous and asynchronous exceptions. As described below, synchronous exceptions are treated as recoverable, allowing you to catch and handle them as well as clean up after them, whereas asynchronous exceptions can only be cleaned up after. In particular, this library prevents you from making the following mistakes:

 * Catching and swallowing an asynchronous exception
 * Throwing an asynchronous exception synchronously
 * Throwing a synchronous exception asynchronously
 * Swallowing asynchronous exceptions via failing cleanup handlers

This package provides the documentation for a library for the Haskell programming language. See http://www.haskell.org/ for more information on Haskell.
