-- | Errors of type 'IOError' are used by the 'IO' monad.  This is an
-- abstract type; the module "System.IO.Error" provides functions to
-- interrogate and construct values of type 'IOError'.
type IOError = Base.IOError

-- SDM: duplicated docs for catch and try, omitting the part about non-IO
-- exceptions.

-- | The 'catch' function establishes a handler that receives any 'IOError'
-- raised in the action protected by 'catch'.  An 'IOError' is caught by
-- the most recent handler established by 'catch'.  These handlers are
-- not selective: all 'IOError's are caught.  Exception propagation
-- must be explicitly provided in a handler by re-raising any unwanted
-- exceptions.  For example, in
--
-- > f = catch g (\e -> if IO.isEOFError e then return [] else ioError e)
--
-- the function @f@ returns @[]@ when an end-of-file exception
-- (cf. 'System.IO.Error.isEOFError') occurs in @g@; otherwise, the
-- exception is propagated to the next outer handler.
--
-- When an exception propagates outside the main program, the Haskell
-- system prints the associated 'IOError' value and exits the program.
--

-- | The construct 'try' @comp@ exposes IO errors which occur within a
-- computation, and which are not fully handled.
