I’ve been working on one of the issues, updating documentation that advises on using Try so that it does not advise this anymore (Try is deprecated).

In a Prism documentation that uses Try, there is an example that uses pTrySuccess , which allegedly lives in arrow.optics. However, I have cloned the Arrow repo and have searched the entire codebase for this string. It only appears in arrow-optics/prism/README.me but in no actual code. I can’t find it in the git history for Optics.kt either.

Does anyone remember what this function was supposed to do? If I’m already replacing Try with Either in many places, I need to get this code working so I can make sure my new documentation is functional code.

Hey @kyleg,
I think this is the file you’re looking for. Sadly it seems those files got outdated 😞

Optics is the first thing I build when contributing to Arrow. Thanks this contribution 👏 It’s great help
