* maint: Update preloaded add system_info(ets_limit) Conflicts: erts/preloaded/ebin/erlang.beam
2013-09-24add system_info(ets_limit)Steve Vinoski
Add system_info(ets_limit) to provide a way to retrieve the runtime's maximum number of ETS tables. Add tests and documentation for it too. Also repair the alphabetical order of system_info/1 argument descriptions in the documentation and in the erlang.erl clauses. Add new preloaded erlang.erl due to that change. Also ensure all system_info/1 clauses are represented in the erlang.xml source documentation -- a couple had been inadvertently dropped in previous commits when other clauses were added.

Changed rouding to round half-way up instead of down. Cosmetic cleanup and error handling of additional edge cases.
2013-02-06erts: Increase length of well formed header names from {packet,http}Sverker Eriksson
To ease matching of unrecognized header field names we convert them from case insensitive to the format Sec-Websocket-Version with capital letters only first and after hyphens. Earlier only header names up to 20 characters were converted to this format due to internal buffer limitation. Raising this limit to 50 is a pragmatic solution for existing long header names such as Sec-Websocket-Version, while valid header names longer than 50 characters are not very probable.

2013-01-21Text representation of a float formatted using given options.Serge Aleynikov
This BIF solves a problem of float_to_list/1 that doesn't allow specifying the number of digits after the decimal point when formatting floats. float_to_list(Float, Options) -> string() Float = float() Options = [Option] Option = {decimals, Decimals::0..249} | {scientific, Decimals::0..249} | compact Returns a string which corresponds to the text representation of a `Float` formatted using given options. When decimals option is specified the returned value will contain at most `Decimals` number of digits past the decimal point. When `compact` option is provided the trailing zeros at the end of the list are truncated (this option is only meaningful together with the `decimals` option). When `scientific` option is provided, the float will be formatted using scientific notation with `Decimals` digits of precision. If `Options` is `[]` the function behaves like `float_to_list/1`. When using `decimals` option and the number doesn't fit in the static internal buffer of 256 bytes the function throws `badarg`.

2012-07-25Doc fix: link from erlang:now/0 to os:timestamp/0Magnus Henoch
Sometimes os:timestamp/0 is more appropriate than erlang:now/0. The documentation for the former has a link to the latter; this patch adds a link in the other direction to make os:timestamp/0 more visible.

2012-05-10Remove stale code for hybrid heap and incremental GCBjörn Gustavsson
The hybrid heap emulator was last working in the non-SMP R11B run-time system. When the constant pools were introduced in R12B, the hybrid heap emulator was not updated to handle them. At this point, the harm from reduced readability of the code is greater than any potential usefulness of keeping the code.
