This will avoid + hitting the time gap between opening the file in write + mode (and thus emptying the file) and the actual update + with the new contents. To do this, a temporary file is + written, and the file:rename/1 used to replace the real + index file.</p> + <p> + Own Id: OTP-9148</p> + </item> + <item> + <p> + Fixed various typos across the documentation (Thanks to + Tuncer Ayaz)</p> + <p> + Own Id: OTP-9154</p> + </item> + <item> + <p> + Supervisors should not save child-specs for temporary + processes when they terminate as they should not be + restarted. Saving the temporary child spec will result in + that you can not start a new temporary process with the + same child spec as an already terminated temporary + process. Since R14B02 you can not restart a temporary + temporary process as arguments are no longer saved, it + has however always been semantically incorrect to restart + a temporary process.

This + patch changes that behavior so that if the return from + slave:start/3 is {already_running, Node} then an attempt + to attach to the node is still made. This makes sense + because the node has been specified by the user in the + .hosts.erlang file indicating a wish for the node to be + part of the pool and a manual attach can be successfully + made after the pool is started.(Thanks to Kelly + McLaughlin)</p> + <p> + Own Id: OTP-9244</p> + </item> + <item> + <p> + unicode: document 16#FFFE and 16#FFFF (non chars)(Thanks + to Tuncer Ayaz)</p> + <p> + Own Id: OTP-9256</p> + </item> + <item> + <p> + re: remove gratuitous "it " in manpage (Thanks to Tuncer + Ayaz)</p> + <p> + Own Id: OTP-9307</p> + </item> + <item> + <p> A bug in erl_eval(3) has been fixed. </p> + <p> + Own Id: OTP-9322</p> + </item> + </list> + </section> + + + <section><title>Improvements and New Features</title> + <list> + <item> + <p> + Add <c>timer:tc/1</c> and remove the catch in <c>tc/2</c> + and <c>tc/3</c>.
