#4810: Versions of bracket without masking acquire action ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: mitar | Owner: Type: proposal | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: libraries/base Version: 7.0.1 | Keywords: Testcase: | Blockedby: Os: Unknown/Multiple | Blocking: Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: None/Unknown ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ With new mask/restore concept it is impossible to unblock exceptions in acquire action which is quite often useful (acquire can be a lengthily action). So it could be a good idea to introduce a variant which has acquire action unmasked.
Of course I could write: {{{ mask $ \restore -> bracket (restore . open) (close) (restore . work) }}} but this is just ugly. So I am proposing `bracket'` or `bracketUnmasked` or something. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4810> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list Glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs
