{- |
The @SomeException@ type is the root of the exception type hierarchy.
When an exception of type @e@ is thrown, behind the scenes it is
encapsulated in a @SomeException@.

    showsPrec p (SomeException e) = showsPrec p e

{- |
Any type that you wish to throw or catch as an exception must be an
instance of the @Exception@ class. The simplest case is a new exception
type directly below the root:

> data MyException = ThisException | ThatException
>     deriving Show
>
> instance Exception MyException

The default method definitions in the @Exception@ class do what we need
in this case. You can now throw and catch @ThisException@ and
@ThatException@ as exceptions:

@
*Main> throw ThisException \`catch\` \\e -> putStrLn (\"Caught \" ++ show (e :: MyException))
Caught ThisException
@

In more complicated examples, you may wish to define a whole hierarchy
of exceptions:

> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
> -- Make the root exception type for all the exceptions in a compiler
>
> data SomeCompilerException = forall e . Exception e => SomeCompilerException e
>
> instance Show SomeCompilerException where
>     show (SomeCompilerException e) = show e
>
> instance Exception SomeCompilerException
>
> compilerExceptionToException :: Exception e => e -> SomeException
> compilerExceptionToException = toException . SomeCompilerException
>
> compilerExceptionFromException :: Exception e => SomeException -> Maybe e
> compilerExceptionFromException x = do
>     SomeCompilerException a <- fromException x
>     cast a
>
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
> -- Make a subhierarchy for exceptions in the frontend of the compiler
>
> data SomeFrontendException = forall e . Exception e => SomeFrontendException e
>
> instance Show SomeFrontendException where
>     show (SomeFrontendException e) = show e
>
> instance Exception SomeFrontendException where
>     toException = compilerExceptionToException
>     fromException = compilerExceptionFromException
>
> frontendExceptionToException :: Exception e => e -> SomeException
> frontendExceptionToException = toException . SomeFrontendException
>
> frontendExceptionFromException :: Exception e => SomeException -> Maybe e
> frontendExceptionFromException x = do
>     SomeFrontendException a <- fromException x
>     cast a
>
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
> -- Make an exception type for a particular frontend compiler exception
>
> data MismatchedParentheses = MismatchedParentheses
>     deriving Show
>
> instance Exception MismatchedParentheses where
>     toException   = frontendExceptionToException
>     fromException = frontendExceptionFromException

We can now catch a @MismatchedParentheses@ exception as
@MismatchedParentheses@, @SomeFrontendException@ or
@SomeCompilerException@, but not other types, e.g. @IOException@:

@
*Main> throw MismatchedParentheses `catch` \e -> putStrLn (\"Caught \" ++ show (e :: MismatchedParentheses))
Caught MismatchedParentheses
*Main> throw MismatchedParentheses `catch` \e -> putStrLn (\"Caught \" ++ show (e :: SomeFrontendException))
Caught MismatchedParentheses
*Main> throw MismatchedParentheses `catch` \e -> putStrLn (\"Caught \" ++ show (e :: SomeCompilerException))
Caught MismatchedParentheses
*Main> throw MismatchedParentheses `catch` \e -> putStrLn (\"Caught \" ++ show (e :: IOException))
*** Exception: MismatchedParentheses
