2011-08-25Add erlang:check_old_code/1Björn Gustavsson
Add erlang:check_old_code/1 to quickly check whether a module has old code. If there is no old code, there is no need to call erlang:check_process_code/2 for all processes, which will save some time if there are many processes.

Flow control can cause unwanted behaviour of the beam process, if accidentally hit Ctrl-S (instead of Ctrl-D to detach) the entire beam may be blocked. Fix this problem by making it possible to turn off flow control by setting the environment variable RUN_ERL_DISABLE_FLOWCNTRL.

2011-03-24add support for checking if an ERL_NIF_TERM is an exceptionSteve Vinoski
Add the enif_is_exception function to allow callers to determine whether an ERL_NIF_TERM represents an exception. (Currently the only supported exception is badarg since only enif_make_badarg exists, but this will likely be expanded in future releases.) This allows NIF code to call other NIF functions that return ERL_NIF_TERM and properly check to see if the returned terms are exceptions. Without the enif_is_exception function, developers have to create their own means of checking whether a function creates an exception, such as returning boolean success/failure indicators or some other special value indicating that an exception is in effect. The declaration of enif_is_exception in erl_nif_api_funcs.h respects the order of declarations required to keep compatibility on Windows. Add a new test to verify the operation of enif_is_exception. Modify the erl_nif man page to add a description of enif_is_exception and also to clarify the requirements of calling the enif_make_badarg function. If code calls enif_make_badarg, the env passed in gets set with exception information and so the return value of the calling function MUST be the badarg term returned from enif_make_badarg. Also clarify that the result of enif_make_badarg may be passed only to enif_is_exception and not to any other NIF API functions.

2011-03-09clarify NIF resource object deallocation documentationSteve Vinoski
In the erl_nif documentation, clarify how and when NIF resource objects can be deallocated. Specifically, add focus for the case of calling enif_release_resource immediately after obtaining a resource term from enif_make_resource, since this is likely to be a common approach NIFs use to manage resources. Also fix a couple misspellings in the erl_nif documentation.

2011-02-21Allow unexpected driver input event in driver_SUITE:smp_selectSverker Eriksson
epoll on Linux has been seen to sometimes trigger unexpected events. Most of the time these events are filtered by erl_check_io, but may slip up to the driver in cases when fd's are reused. Also made clear in driver docs that spurious events may happen.

2011-02-18Add dependencies Makefile generation to erlc(1) and compile(3)Jean-Sébastien Pédron
This is useful when a project is built with Makefiles and erlc(1) instead of EMakefiles. Tracking dependencies by hand is error-prone and it becomes painful when using external application headers like EUnit's one. A dependencies Makefile will look like this: module.beam: module.erl \ /usr/local/lib/erlang/lib/eunit-2.1.4/include/eunit.hrl \ header.hrl When included in the main Makefile, 'module' will be recompiled only when needed. GCC offers the same feature and new erlc(1) options are compatible with it. More informations at: http://wiki.github.com/dumbbell/otp/dependencies-makefile
