Package: libghc-iospec-dev (0.3.1.2-2)

Pure specification of the IO monad

It consists of several modules, that give a pure specification of functions in the IO monad:

Test.IOSpec.Fork: a pure specification of forkIO.

Test.IOSpec.IORef: a pure specification of most functions that create and manipulate on IORefs.

Test.IOSpec.MVar: a pure specification of most functions that create and manipulate and MVars.

Test.IOSpec.STM: a pure specification of atomically and the STM monad.

Test.IOSpec.Teletype: a pure specification of getChar, putChar, and several related Prelude functions.

Besides these modules containing the specifications, there are a few other important modules:

Test.IOSpec.Types: defines the IOSpec type and several amenities.

Test.IOSpec.VirtualMachine: defines a virtual machine on which to execute pure specifications.

Test.IOSpec.Surrogate: a drop-in replacement for the other modules. Import this and recompile your code once you've finished testing and debugging.

There are several well-documented examples included with the source distribution.

This package provides a library for the Haskell programming language. See http://www.haskell.org/ for more information on Haskell.
