The new + strategy completely ignores <c>fun</c>s. If <c>fun</c>s + referring to the code being purged exist, and are used + after a purge, an exception will be raised upon usage. + That is, the behavior will be exactly the same as the + case when a <c>fun</c> is received by a process after the + purge.</p> + <p> + The new strategy can optionally be enabled when building + OTP during OTP 19, and will automatically be enabled if + the runtime system is built with support for dirty + schedulers.</p> + <p> + For more information see the documentation of <seealso + marker="erts:erlang#check_process_code/3"><c>erlang:check_process_code/3</c></seealso>.</p> + <p> + Own Id: OTP-13833</p> + </item> + </list> + </section> + +</section> + <section><title>SASL 3.0</title> <section><title>Improvements and New Features</title> |
