Transformer
The transformers-style monad transfomer
Add Exception handling abilities to a Monad.
This should never be used in combination with IO. Think of CatchT
 as an alternative base monad for use with mocking code that solely throws
 exceptions via throwM.
Note: that IO monad has these abilities already, so stacking CatchT on top
 of it does not add any value and can possibly be confusing:
>>>(error "Hello!" :: IO ()) `catch` (\(e :: ErrorCall) -> liftIO $ print e)Hello!
>>>runCatchT $ (error "Hello!" :: CatchT IO ()) `catch` (\(e :: ErrorCall) -> liftIO $ print e)*** Exception: Hello!
>>>runCatchT $ (throwM (ErrorCall "Hello!") :: CatchT IO ()) `catch` (\(e :: ErrorCall) -> liftIO $ print e)Hello!
