libghc-retry-dev - 0.7.7.0-1+b1 main

This package exposes combinators that can wrap arbitrary monadic actions. They
run the action and potentially retry running it with some configurable delay
for a configurable number of times.
.
The purpose is to make it easier to work with IO and especially network IO
actions that often experience temporary failure and warrant retrying of the
original action. For example, a database query may time out for a while, in
which case we should hang back for a bit and retry the query instead of simply
raising an exception.
.
This package provides a library for the Haskell programming language.
