2010-02-03OTP-8323 Cross compilation improvements and other build systemRickard Green
improvements. Most notable: Lots of cross compilation improvements. The old cross compilation support was more or less non-existing as well as broken. Please, note that the cross compilation support should still be considered as experimental. Also note that old cross compilation configurations cannot be used without modifications. For more information on cross compiling Erlang/OTP see the $ERL_TOP/xcomp/README file. Support for staged install using <url href="http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/DESTDIR.html">D ESTDIR</url>. The old broken INSTALL_PREFIX has also been fixed. For more information see the $ERL_TOP/README file. Documentation of the release target of the top Makefile. For more information see the $ERL_TOP/README file. make install now by default creates relative symbolic links instead of absolute ones. For more information see the $ERL_TOP/README file. $ERL_TOP/configure --help=recursive now works and prints help for all applications with configure scripts. Doing make install, or make release directly after make all no longer triggers miscellaneous rebuilds. Existing bootstrap system is now used when doing make install, or make release without a preceding make all. The crypto and ssl applications use the same runtime library path when dynamically linking against libssl.so and libcrypto.so. The runtime library search path has also been extended. The configure scripts of erl_interface and odbc now search for thread libraries and thread library quirks the same way as erts do. The configure script of the odbc application now also looks for odbc libraries in lib64 and lib/64 directories when building on a 64-bit system. The config.h.in file in the erl_interface application is now automatically generated in instead of statically updated which reduces the risk of configure tests without any effect.
2010-02-03OTP-8058 The GUI parts are rewritten to use wxWidgets. Thanks OlleHåkan Mattsson
Mattsson! For the time being it is still possible to use the old GS based version of the tool, but it is deprecated. The wxWidgets based version is started by default. A new tutorial has been added to the documentation. It is based on Jayson Vantuyl's article http://souja.net/2009/04/making-sense-of-erlangs-event-tracer.htm l. The functions et:trace_me/4 and et:trace_me/5 has been introduced in order to replace the deprecated functions et:report_event/4 and et:report_event/5. Hopefully the new names makes it a little more obvious what the intended usage of the functions are. A print function has been added to the GUI, in order to enable printing of sequence charts. More functionality for hiding unwanted events has been added to the GUI. The max_events, hide_unknown and display_mode configuration parameters to et_viewer is not used any more. Now the event cache in the Viewer only contains those events that actually are displayed in the GUI. Some minor bugs has been fixed. Such as a cleaning up trace patterns at termination and displaying events with detail level 100.

2010-02-02Add option to compress data when copying tables between Mnesia nodesIgor Ribeiro Sucupira
Optionally using data compression for copying Mnesia tables allows the system to be tuned to eliminate network bottlenecks from deployments where enough CPU is available to use zlib. With this patch, running erl -mnesia send_compressed <level> will enable compression for sending tables between nodes. The compression level can be any integer in [0, 9], with 0 (the default) meaning no compression (exactly the previous behaviour) and 9 being the highest compression level. To set any non-zero compression level at the sender, both nodes must have the updated Mnesia modules (the receiver will work according to the sender's configuration).

New section added on Macros Overloading
2010-02-01epp: change rules to choose the right version of a macroChristopher Faulet
Now, when we have only the constant definition of a macro (without arguments), we always use it. In all other cases, we try to find the exact matching definition. We throw an error if we don't find it.
2010-02-01epp: Add support of macros overloadingChristopher Faulet
This feature simplifies the definition of macros by avoiding to have a different name for each version (with different arities) of the same macros. New rules: - can have multiple definitions of the same macro with different arities - cannot overload macro with the same arity - the overloading of predefined macros (?MODULE, ?LINE, ...) is forbidden - the directive '-undef' removes all definitions of a macro
2010-02-01epp: fix bug in the function scan_undefChristopher Faulet
The dict St#epp.uses that helps to find circular macros was not correctly updated.

2010-01-30compiler: make ignore_native_errors also handle internal hipe errorsBjörn Gustavsson
We must also catch exits, not only errors, since the hipe compilers does an exit/1 if an internal error is found.
2010-01-30re tests: disable native-code compilation for huge modulesBjörn Gustavsson
Two generated modules contains too big functions for the native-code compiler to handle (even the BEAM compiler struggles when compiling them).
2010-01-30Teach the compiler the no_native optionBjörn Gustavsson
Implement the 'no_native' option to disable native-code compilation. If given in a module like this: -compile(no_native). it will override a 'native' option given on the command line.

2010-01-30Merge branch 'ta/ensure_dir_eexist' into ccase/r13b04_devErlang/OTP
* ta/ensure_dir_eexist: filelib_SUITE: strenghten tests of filelib:ensure_dir/1 Don't return a false {error,eexist} in filelib:ensure_dir/1 OTP-8389 Because of a race condition, using filelib:ensure_dir/1 from multiple processes to create the same path or parts of the same directory structure, filelib:ensure_dir/1 could return a meaningless {error,eexist}. That race condition has been eliminated, and {error,eexist} will now be returned only if there exists a regular file, device file, or some other non-directory file with the same name. (Thanks to Tuncer Ayaz.)

* mp/hipe-smp-fixes: work around hipe_mfa_info_table lock omission fix hipe loader SMP non-atomicity error OTP-8397 The loading of native code was not properly atomic in the SMP emulator, which could cause crashes. Also a per-MFA information table for the native code has now been protected with a lock since it turns that it could be accessed concurrently in the SMP emulator. (Thanks to Mikael Pettersson.)

Don't change any guard tests in the id_transform_SUITE module, because it intentionally use the old guard tests to test that id_transform can handle them.
2010-01-29Test suites: fix creation of EmakefilesBjörn Gustavsson
The Emakefiles in some test suite directories are only appended to, never created from scratch, which can cause problems especially when swithching branches in a git repository.

2010-01-27work around hipe_mfa_info_table lock omissionMikael Pettersson
HiPE maintains per-MFA information such as native code entry point in a table. This table was thought to be read-only at runtime, except when the loader populates it, so it employed no locking. That turned out to be incorrect: if there is an apply of a previously unseen MFA, a native code stub for that MFA is created and recorded in the table, causing it to grow. Work around this for now by slapping a mutex around accesses to that table. Signed-off-by: Mikael Pettersson <[email protected]>
2010-01-27fix hipe loader SMP non-atomicity errorMikael Pettersson
Loading native code is a multi-step operation that needs to be atomic, but the HiPE loader failed to ensure that. This caused corruption of runtime system structure in some cases. Fix by blocking multi_scheduling around main loader entry points. Signed-off-by: Mikael Pettersson <[email protected]>

Most code, testcases and error isolation done by Rory Byrne.

2010-01-27Refactor out repeated block in re moduleRory Byrne
2010-01-27Fix re:replace/4 to handle unicode charlist Replacement argumentRory Byrne
A bug in re:replace/4 causes a badarg exception to be thrown when the Replacement argument is a charlist containing non-ascii codepoints. The problem is that the code incorrectly assumes that the Replacement text is iodata() and calls iolist_to_binary/1 on it. This patch fixes it to obey the 'unicode' option and handle charlist() Replacement arguments correctly.
