[Baypiggies] Everything Your Professor Failed to Tell You About Functional Programming

[Ilia Iourovitski]

In Java land those Monads called interceptors
http://wiki.opensymphony.com/display/XW/Interceptors


public String invoke() throws Exception {
        if (executed) {
            throw new IllegalStateException("Action has already executed");
        }

        if (interceptors.hasNext()) {
            Interceptor interceptor = (Interceptor) interceptors.next();
            result = interceptor.intercept(this);
        } else {
            result = action.execute();
            executed = true;
        }

        return result;
    }
