2017-09-14Document that the compiler may optimize away atomsBjörn Gustavsson
The following code could fail in the call to list_existing_atom/1: String = atom_to_list(some_atom), Atom = list_to_existing_atom(String) because the compiler will rewrite the code to: String = "some_atom", Atom = list_to_existing_atom(String) If some_atom is not used in another place, it will not exist. The compiler could be updated to preserve the atom in this simple case, but it would be hard to make sure that the compiler never loses atoms that exist in the source text. It also difficult to imagine a real world use case where this would be a problem. If an atom is mentioned only in a way that the compiler can optimize away, is there really any need to create the atom at all in list_to_existing_atom/1? Therefore, it is better to place the responsibility that the atom exists on the user of list_to_existing_atom/1. Update the documentation to mention that the compiler may optimize away atoms. https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-453

All operations will now yield appropriately, allowing them to be used freely in concurrent applications. This commit also deprecates the functions listed below, although they won't raise deprecation warnings until OTP 21: zlib:adler32 zlib:crc32 zlib:inflateChunk zlib:getBufSize zlib:setBufSize The behavior of throwing an error when a dictionary is required for decompression has also been deprecated.
