* mh/to_erl-error-messages: to_erl: Include strerror(errno) in error messages OTP-8325 to_erl will now include the system error string in error messages to make it easier to understand what the real problem is. (Thanks to Magnus Henoch.)
2009-11-28to_erl: Include strerror(errno) in error messagesMagnus Henoch
to_erl likes to print the message "No running Erlang on pipe ...", no matter what the problem actually was. The wording might make you forget that you just need to run to_erl as another user, for example. With this change, to_erl will print the system error message in addition to its own. Example output: No running Erlang on pipe pipes/erlang.pipe.5: Permission denied (wrong user, wrong permissions, etc) No running Erlang on pipe pipes/erlang.pipe.5: No such device or address (this actually means "no running Erlang") No running Erlang on pipe pipes/erlang.pipe: No such file or directory (not only is there no running Erlang, there are also no pipes at all)
2009-11-28dialyzer: make -wx always start the SMP emulatorKostis Sagonas
The wx application will only work in the SMP emulator, so the -wx option for 'dialyzer' must force the -smp option when starting the emulator. Make sure that -wx in *any* position on the command line (not only as the first argument) forces the SMP emulator.
