Description:
Common debugging\/error\/exception functions that give file location information
.
@
$(err \"OH NO!\")
main:Main main.hs:16:1 OH NO!
@
.
Notice how it displays package:module file:line:character
.
It exposes the functions err (error), undef (undefined), and trc (Debug.Trace.trace). All of these behave the same as their normal counterpart but also spit out a location.
.
Here is my favorite helper, debug, which is like trace but just show the value.
.
@
debug [1,2,3]
DEBUG: [1,2,3]
[1,2,3]
@
.
And The Template Haskell version.
.
@
$(dbg) [1,2,3]
DEBUG main:Main main.hs:1:3 [1,2,3]
[1,2,3]
@
.
Also there is a version of thrwIO that gives location information
.
@
($(thrwIO) $ AException) `catch` \e -> putStrLn (\"Caught \" ++ show (e :: AException))
Caught AException \"main:Main test/main.hs:25:6\"
@
.
