Hi Stephen: It could be:
It performs a rollback indeed. I guess that this monad can be used in something similar to nonblocking (multilevel) transactions. if "GoBack" is changed to "Goback String", and a trace string is added to each NoBack step, then each NoBack step could sum the traces of all the previous steps. The when GoBack condition is reached, it can transport back the entire trace of the failed execution. to the BackPoint 2012/3/28 Stephen Tetley <[email protected]>: > Maybe this is a version of William Harrison's DebugT monad with > rollback, listed in his periodic table of effects? > > http://www.cs.missouri.edu/~harrisonwl/Presentations/UIUCFM05.ppt > > I've never seen a definition of the monad itself... > http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/beginners/2010-January/003371.html _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
