Copy code
result.recoverCatching { exception ->
    throw SomeOtherException(exception)
}

Isn't that slightly inefficient from a processing perspective as the JVM will need to generate the stacktrace etc?

the stacktrace is gathered when 
SomeOtherException
is constructed, so you'll have that cost even without the 
throw
.
(but yes, exceptional control flow is more expensive, just not for that reason)
if that matters, you can still use
Copy code
result.fold(onSuccess = { Result.success(it) }, onFailure = { Result.failure(transform(it)) })
instead of your original

Thanks @ephemient we've been using the 
fold
method in our code, was just hoping for a slightly cleaner/more elegant solution
