forM :: (Traversable t, Monad m) => t a -> (a -> m b) -> m (t b)distribution-opensuse OpenSuse.Prelude forM is mapM with its arguments flipped. For a version that ignores the results see forM_.
forM_ :: (Foldable t, Monad m) => t a -> (a -> m b) -> m ()distribution-opensuse OpenSuse.Prelude forM_ is mapM_ with its arguments flipped. For a version that doesn't ignore the results see forM. forM_ is just like for_, but specialised to monadic actions.
forever :: Applicative f => f a -> f bdistribution-opensuse OpenSuse.Prelude Repeat an action indefinitely.
Examples
A common use of forever is to process input from network sockets, Handles, and channels (e.g. MVar and Chan). For example, here is how we might implement an echo server, using forever both to listen for client connections on a network socket and to echo client input on client connection handles:echoServer :: Socket -> IO () echoServer socket = forever $ do client <- accept socket forkFinally (echo client) (\_ -> hClose client) where echo :: Handle -> IO () echo client = forever $ hGetLine client >>= hPutStrLn client
Note that "forever" isn't necessarily non-terminating. If the action is in a MonadPlus and short-circuits after some number of iterations. then forever actually returns mzero, effectively short-circuiting its caller.forceRecomp :: Params cfgType a -> Booldyre Config.Dyre Should GHC be given the -fforce-recomp flag?
