2011-08-16Don't build stacktrace until erlang:get_stacktrace() is calledBjörn Gustavsson
Currently, dbg_istk:exception_stacktrace/2 does not do a very good job imitating BEAM's stacktrace. The reason is that it need to be relatively fast since a simulated stacktrace is constructed not only when an exception oocurs, but also before every call to non-interpreted code. To prepare for a future more thorough (and slower) stacktrace construction, refactor the building of the stacktrace so that it only is done when erlang:get_stacktrace/0 is called.
2011-08-16Rewrite stack handlingBjörn Gustavsson
Problems with the current stack implementation: * The GUI assumes that the stack frame pushed on the stack is level 2. If the 'no_tail' option is set for the process, there may not be an entry for level 2. * In each stack entry, the line number is the line number of the caller, not the line number for the function in the 'mfa' field as might be expected. That complicates generation of a stacktrace with line number information. Change the implementation as follows: * Keep the information for the current function (its MFA and current line number) in the #ieval{} record. Don't push it onto the stack. Only push the information when another function is called. That will ensure that the MFA and the line number is found in the same stack entry. That also has the advantage that if the 'no_tail' option is set, the stack not need to be modified for tail-recursive calls. * Make sure that there always is an entry for level two.
2011-08-16Slightly clean-up and optimize some evaluation codeBjörn Gustavsson
There is no need to set #ieval.top to false in every iteration of eval_list/1.
2011-08-16ieval record: Rename the misnamed 'last_call' field to 'top'Björn Gustavsson
The 'last_call' is badly named. What is means is that the next call will leave intepreted code.

2011-08-16dbg_iload: Remove unnecessary handling of old guard testsBjörn Gustavsson
sys_pre_expand has already rewritten old guard tests to new guard tests.
2011-08-16Remove the special handling of Mod:module_info/{0,1}Björn Gustavsson
Many releases ago, Mod:module_info/{0,1} used to be specially handled in the BEAM loader. The debugger has similar special handling. In the current implementation, Mod:module_info/{0,1} are ordinary functions that call special BIFs to do their work. Therefore, remove the special handling of Mod:module_info/{0,1} in the debugger.
2011-08-16Remove the special handling of spawn BIFsBjörn Gustavsson
BIFs that spawn new processes once upon a time needed/benefited from special handling, but now they are handled in exactly the same way as an unsafe BIF (except for a bug in the handling of the return value trace). Therefore, treat spawn BIFs as unsafe BIFs.
2011-08-16Remove BIFs that no longer exist from dbg_iload:bif_type/1Björn Gustavsson
2011-08-16Handle all guard BIFs as safe in function bodiesBjörn Gustavsson
Make sure that all guards BIFs are handled as safe BIFs in function bodies. BIFs in guards are already handled as safe. (self/0 is not safe, but it is already specially handled.)
2011-08-16Remove support for erlang:fault/{1,2}Björn Gustavsson
Since erlang:fault/{1,2} is no longer supported in the run-time system (it was removed several releases ago), there is no need to still support it in the debugger.
2011-07-06Remove deprecated concat_binary/1Björn Gustavsson
concat_binary/1 was deprecated in R13B04, but already in the R10B-2 release, the documentation recommends using list_to_binary/1 instead.

2010-06-07Remove tid() from the predefined builtin types.Kostis Sagonas
Change erl_lint not to recognize this type as builtin and add a new erl_lint.beam version in bootstrap. Add an -opaque type declaration for this type in ets.erl and also declare this as an exported type. Use this type in file debugger/src/dbg_iload.erl in a spec. While at it, also clean up this later file a bit.

2010-06-03Merge branch 'pan/otp_8579_autoimport_override' into devErlang/OTP
* origin/pan/otp_8579_autoimport_override: Update preloaded modules Update primary bootstrap Remove outcommented code from erl_lint Make port_command/3 auto-imported Remove (harmless) warnings about min/max in core applications Autoimport min/2 and max/2 Improve coverage of erl_int in testcases Change warning to error for nowarn_bif_clash compiler directive Add -compile({no_auto_import,[F/A]}) doc to compiler.xml Add some testcases to compiler to verify that overriding really happens Return nowarn_bif_clash functionality but with warning Teach erl_lint to better override BIFs with local functions and imports Teach compiler to override autoimport with import First prototype for local functions overriding autoimported OTP-8579 Local functions should override auto-imported Local and imported functions now override the autoimported BIFs when the names clash. The pre R14 behaviour was that autoimported BIFs would override local functions. To avoid that old programs change behaviour, the following will generate an error: Doing a call without explicit module name to a local function having a name clashing with the name of an autoimported BIF that was present (and autoimported) before OTP R14A Explicitly importing a function having a name clashing with the name of an autoimported BIF that was present (and autoimported) before OTP R14A Using any form of the old compiler directive nowarn_bif_clash If the BIF was added or autoimported in OTP R14A or later, overriding it with an import or a local function will only result in a warning, To resolve clashes, you can either use the explicit module name erlang to call the BIF, or you can remove the autoimport of that specific BIF by using the new compiler directive -compile({no_auto_import,[F/A]})., which makes all calls to the local or imported function without explicit module name pass without warnings or errors. The change makes it possible to add autoimported BIFs without breaking or silently changing old code in the future. However some current code ingeniously utilizing the old behaviour or the nowarn_bif_clash compiler directive, might need changing to be accepted by the compiler.

This is an optimization to avoid sending huge terms to the gui just to step by them and update variables again. Even better would be to only update if necessary.
