fromJust -package:streamly-core

The fromJust function extracts the element out of a Just and throws an error if its argument is Nothing.

Examples

Basic usage:

>>> fromJust (Just 1)
1

>>> 2 * (fromJust (Just 10))
20

>>> 2 * (fromJust Nothing)
*** Exception: Maybe.fromJust: Nothing
...

WARNING: This function is partial. You can use case-matching instead.

Return the value of an optional value. The behavior is undefined if passed Nothing, i.e., it can return any value. Compare to fromMaybe.

>>> fromJust (sJust (literal 'a'))
'a' :: SChar

>>> prove $ \x -> fromJust (sJust x) .== (x :: SChar)
Q.E.D.

>>> sat $ \x -> x .== (fromJust sNothing :: SChar)
Satisfiable. Model:
s0 = 'A' :: Char

Note how we get a satisfying assignment in the last case: The behavior is unspecified, thus the SMT solver picks whatever satisfies the constraints, if there is one.

Convert between Just and its value.

Converts a Maybe into a value or throws an error if the Maybe is Nothing.

An alternative name for fromMaybe, to fit the naming scheme of this package. Generally using fromMaybe directly would be considered better style.

Convert a possibly-incomplete specification for what to convert into one which can be executed. Calls error when data is missing.

Same as fromJust, but returns a bottom/undefined value that other Clash constructs are aware of.

Extract value from Just, failing with AuthOtherFailure on Nothing.

fromJust but with a better error message if it fails. Use this only where it shouldn't fail!
