- <p>Changed the default behaviour of <c>.erlang</c>
- loading: <c>.erlang</c> is no longer loaded from the
- current directory. <c>c:erlangrc(PathList)</c> can be
- used to search and load an <c>.erlang</c> file from user
- specified directories.</p> <p><c>escript</c>,
- <c>erlc</c>, <c>dialyzer</c> and <c>typer</c> no longer
- load an <c>.erlang</c> at all.</p>
- <p>
- *** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14439</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>Support for "tuple calls" have been removed from the
- run-time system. Tuple calls was an undocumented and
- unsupported feature which allowed the module argument for
- an apply operation to be a tuple: <c>Var = dict:new(),
- Var:size()</c>. This "feature" frequently caused
- confuses, especially when such call failed. The
- stacktrace would point out functions that don't exist in
- the source code.</p>
- <p>For legacy code that need to use parameterized modules
- or tuple calls for some other reason, there is a new
- compiler option called <c>tuple_calls</c>. When this
- option is given, the compiler will generate extra code
- that emulates the old behavior for calls where the module
- is a variable.</p>
- <p>
- *** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14497</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>In code such as <c>example({ok, Val}) -&gt; {ok,
- Val}.</c> a tuple would be built. The compiler will now
- automatically rewrite the code to
- <c>example({ok,Val}=Tuple) -&gt; Tuple.</c> which will
- reduce code size, execution time, and remove GC
- pressure.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14505</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>The optimization of <c>case</c> expression where only
- one of the case arms can execute successfully has been
- improved.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14525</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>Some uses of binary matching has been slightly
- improved, eliminating unnecessary register shuffling.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14594 Aux Id: ERL-444 </p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>There is a new <c>{compile_info,Info}</c> option for
- the compiler that allows BEAM-based languages such as
- Elixir and LFE to add their own compiler versions.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14615 Aux Id: PR-1558 </p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>Loaded BEAM code in a 64-bit system requires less
- memory because of better packing of operands for
- instructions.</p>
- <p>These memory savings were achieved by major
- improvements to the <c>beam_makeops</c> scripts used when
- building the run time system and BEAM compiler. There is
- also new for documentation for <c>beam_makeops</c> that
- describes how new BEAM instructions and loader
- transformations can be implemented. The documentation is
- found in here in a source directory or git repository:
- erts/emulator/internal_doc/beam_makeops.md. An online
- version can be found here:
- https://github.com/erlang/otp/blob/master/erts/emulator/internal_doc/beam_makeops.md</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14626</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>Size calculations for binary constructions has been
- somewhat optimized, producing smaller code.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14654</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>When the value returned from a '<c>catch</c>'
- expression is ignored, no stacktrace will be built if an
- exception is caught. That will save time and produce less
- garbage. There are also some minor optimizations of
- '<c>try</c>/<c>catch</c>' both in the compiler and
- run-time system.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14683</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>There is a new syntax in '<c>try/catch</c>' for
- retrieving the stacktrace without calling
- '<c>erlang:get_stacktrace/0</c>'. See the reference
- manual for a description of the new syntax. The
- '<c>erlang:get_stacktrace/0</c>' BIF is now
- deprecated.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14692</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>The following is an internal change in the compiler,
- that is not noticeable for normal use of the compiler:
- The module <c>v3_life</c> has been removed. Its
- functionality has been simplified and integrated into
- <c>v3_codegen</c>.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14712</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>The optimization of binary matching that delays
- creation of sub binaries (see the Efficiency Guide) could
- be thwarted by the argument order and could be necessary
- to change the argument order. The compiler has now become
- smarter and can handle any argument order.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14774</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>When the compiler was faced with complex case
- expressions it would unnecessarily allocate stack
- elements and shuffle data between x and y registers.
- Improved code generation to only allocate a stack frame
- when strictly necessary.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14808 Aux Id: ERL-514 </p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>There is a new option '<c>makedep_side_effect</c>' for
- the compiler and <c>-MMD</c> for '<c>erlc</c>' that
- generates dependencies and continues to compile as
- normal.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14830</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>When compiling modules with huge functions, the
- compiler would generate a lot of atoms for its internal,
- sometimes so many that the atom table would overflow. The
- compiler has been rewritten to generate far less internal
- atoms to avoid filling the atom table.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14968 Aux Id: ERL-563 </p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>External funs with literal values for module, name,
- and arity (e.g. <c>erlang:abs/1</c>) are now treated as
- literals. That means more efficient code that produces
- less garbage on the heap.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-15003</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>The <c>map_get/2</c> guard BIF has been added. It
- works the same way as <c>maps:get/2</c>, except that it
- is allowed to use it in guards.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-15037 Aux Id: PR-1784 </p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>A call or apply of a literal external fun will be
- replaced with a direct call.</p>

- <c>{bad_action_from_state_function,Action}</c> to
- <c>{bad_state_enter_action_from_state_function,Action}</c>.
- </p><p> Timer parsing has been improved. Many erroneous

- <p> File operations used to accept <seealso
- marker="kernel:file#type-name_all">filenames</seealso>
- containing null characters (integer value zero). This
- caused the name to be truncated and in some cases
- arguments to primitive operations to be mixed up.
- Filenames containing null characters inside the filename
- are now <em>rejected</em> and will cause primitive file
- operations to fail. </p> <p> Also environment variable
- operations used to accept <seealso

- <seealso
- marker="kernel:os#type-env_var_value">values</seealso> of

- operations to fail. </p> <p>Primitive environment
- variable operations also used to accept the <c>$=</c>
- character in environment variable names causing various

- The <c>gen_server</c> has gotten a new callback

- <p> The semantics of timeout parameter
- <c>{clean_timeout,infinity}</c> to
- <c>gen_statem:call/3</c> has been changed to use a proxy
- process for the call. With this change
- <c>clean_timeout</c> implicates a proxy process with no
- exceptions. This may be a hard to observe
- incompatibility: in the presence of network problems a
- late reply could arrive in the caller's message queue
- when catching errors. That will not happen after this
- correction. </p><p> The semantics of timeout parameter
- <c>infinity</c> has not been changed. </p>

- A new logging API is added to OTP. This is implemented in
- the Kernel application, module logger.</p>
- <p>
- Legacy calls to error_logger will be automatically
- redirected to the new API.</p>
- <p>
- See the reference manual for module logger, and the
- User's Guide for the Kernel application for more

- <p> Functions <c>rand:uniform_real/0</c> and

- produce uniformly distributed numbers in the range <c>0.0
- =&lt; X &lt; 1.0</c> that are as close to random real
- numbers as Normalized IEEE 754 Double Precision allows.
- Because the random real number exactly <c>0.0</c> is
- infinitely improbable they will never return exactly
- <c>0.0</c>. </p><p> These properties are useful when you
- need to call for example <c>math:log(X)</c> or <c>1 /
- X</c> on a random value <c>X</c>, since that will never
- fail with a number from these new functions. </p>

- Own Id: OTP-14503</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p><c>filelib:wildcard()</c> now allows characters with a
- special meaning to be escaped using backslashes.</p>
- <p>This is an incompatible change, but note that the use
- of backslashes in wildcards would already work
- differently on Windows and Unix. Existing calls to
- <c>filelib:wildcard()</c> needs to be updated. On
- Windows, directory separators must always be written as a
- slash.</p>

- <c>mime_decode/1</c> fail unless called with an argument
- of the documented type. They used to accept any

- the HTML5 specification.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14747</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p> Add functions
- <c>calendar:rfc3339_to_system_time/1,2</c> and

- <c>erl_eval</c> module more accurately reflect where the
- exception occurred. </p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14826 Aux Id: PR 1540 </p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p> Add options <c>atime</c>, <c>mtime</c>, <c>ctime</c>,
- <c>uid</c>, and <c>gid</c> to the <c>erl_tar:add/3,4</c>
- functions. </p>

- Own Id: OTP-14834 Aux Id: PR 1608 </p>
- </item>

- identifier of a named table.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14884</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>
- Improved URI normalization functions in the uri_string
- module.</p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14910</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p> The new functions <c>io_lib:fwrite/3</c> and
- <c>io_lib:format/3</c> take a third argument, an option
- list. The only option is <c>chars_limit</c>, which is
- used for limiting the number of returned characters. The
- limit is soft, which means that the number of returned
- characters exceeds the limit with at most a smallish
- amount. If the limit is set, the functions
- <c>format/3</c> and <c>fwrite/3</c> try to distribute the
- number of characters evenly over the control sequences
- <c>pPswW</c>. Furthermore, the control sequences
- <c>pPwP</c> try to distribute the number of characters
- evenly over substructures. </p> <p> A modification of the
- control sequences <c>pPwW</c> is that even if there is no
- limit on the number of returned characters, all
- associations of a map are printed to the same depth. The
- aim is to give a more consistent output as the order of
- map keys is not defined. As before, if the depth is less
- than the number of associations of a map, the selection
- of associations to print is arbitrary. </p>
- <p>
- Own Id: OTP-14983</p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p> Add functions <c>ordsets:is_empty/1</c> and
- <c>sets:is_empty/1</c>. </p>

- Own Id: OTP-14996 Aux Id: ERL-557, PR-1703 </p>
- </item>
- <item>
- <p>External funs with literal values for module, name,
- and arity (e.g. <c>erlang:abs/1</c>) are now treated as
- literals. That means more efficient code that produces
- less garbage on the heap.</p>
- <p>

- A sys debug function can now have the format
- {Id,Fun,State} in addition to the old {Fun,State}. This
