# Documentation

data Message Source #

This abstract data type represents parse error messages. There are four kinds of messages:

     data Message = SysUnExpect String
                  | UnExpect String
                  | Expect String
                  | Message String

The fine distinction between different kinds of parse errors allows the system to generate quite good error messages for the user. It also allows error messages that are formatted in different languages. Each kind of message is generated by different combinators:

- A `SysUnExpect` message is automatically generated by the `satisfy` combinator. The argument is the unexpected input.
- A `UnExpect` message is generated by the `unexpected` combinator. The argument describes the unexpected item.
- A `Expect` message is generated by the `<?>` combinator. The argument describes the expected item.
- A `Message` message is generated by the `fail` combinator. The argument is some general parser message.

messageString :: Message -> String Source #

Extract the message string from an error message

messageCompare :: Message -> Message -> Ordering Source #

messageEq :: Message -> Message -> Bool Source #

data ParseError Source #

The abstract data type `ParseError` represents parse errors. It provides the source position (`SourcePos`) of the error and a list of error messages (`Message`). A `ParseError` can be returned by the function `parse`. `ParseError` is an instance of the `Show` and `Eq` classes.
