What is the prefered way to raise errors (ParseError) in Parsec? I got some code inside a parser that performs a check and if the check fails a ParseError should be returned (i.e. Left ParseError when running parse).
You can use Text.ParserCombinators.Parsec.Prim.unexpected and Control.Monad.fail for this. Both take a String argument signifying the error message and will return (in this case) a value of type GenParser tok st a.
For more, see Text.ParserCombinators.Parsec.Error, specifically Message. There you can read which function to use in which case (though both signify a parse error, they are semantically slightly different).
