Implement the compact IEEE 754 double encoding in external binary
format for ei. Encoding for ei now always produces the NEW_FLOAT_EXT
format. Decoding and term printing handle both the old ERL_FLOAT_EXT
encoding and the new NEW_FLOAT_EXT encoding. Legacy erl_interface code
also handles the new encoding, but still produces the ERL_FLOAT_EXT
encoding by default.
Also enable the DFLAG_NEW_FLOATS distribution flag.
Reduce the number of copies of the code for encoding and decoding
doubles throughout ei and erl_interface by instead calling the ei
encoding and decoding functions wherever possible.
Restore commented-out float tests in ei_decode_SUITE and
ei_encode_SUITE in lib/erl_interface/test. Modify them to make them
match the style of other tests in the same suites.
These changes are based on an ei float patch from Serge Aleynikov
originally submitted against R12B-2 in July 2008.

Change "encoding" to "decoding" where the documentation describes the
return value 0.

The default value for Fun is start, not [] as the documentation used
to suggest.
Also, format [] with <c> instead of <em> since it is a code fragment,
not an emphasised word.

* ml/documentation_apostrophe_fix:
Correct grammatical problems in conjunction with 'its'
Change all incorrect occurrences of it's to its
OTP-8523 ml/documentation_apostrophe_fix
|

The documentation (*.xml) in the otp tree has a common grammatical
problem, "it's" and "its" are often interchanged. That is annoying
for some readers.
This commit consists entirely of "it's" -> "its" changes. I went
through every .xml file in the tree. If there are any remaining
bugs of this type, it's because I missed them, not because I
didn't look.

improvements.
Most notable:
Lots of cross compilation improvements. The old cross compilation
support was more or less non-existing as well as broken. Please,
note that the cross compilation support should still be
considered as experimental. Also note that old cross compilation
configurations cannot be used without modifications. For more
information on cross compiling Erlang/OTP see the
$ERL_TOP/xcomp/README file.
Support for staged install using <url
href="http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/DESTDIR.html">D
ESTDIR</url>. The old broken INSTALL_PREFIX has also been fixed.
For more information see the $ERL_TOP/README file.
Documentation of the release target of the top Makefile. For more
information see the $ERL_TOP/README file.
make install now by default creates relative symbolic links
instead of absolute ones. For more information see the
$ERL_TOP/README file.
$ERL_TOP/configure --help=recursive now works and prints help for
all applications with configure scripts.
Doing make install, or make release directly after make all no
longer triggers miscellaneous rebuilds.
Existing bootstrap system is now used when doing make install, or
make release without a preceding make all.
The crypto and ssl applications use the same runtime library path
when dynamically linking against libssl.so and libcrypto.so. The
runtime library search path has also been extended.
The configure scripts of erl_interface and odbc now search for
thread libraries and thread library quirks the same way as erts
do.
The configure script of the odbc application now also looks for
odbc libraries in lib64 and lib/64 directories when building on a
64-bit system.
The config.h.in file in the erl_interface application is now
automatically generated in instead of statically updated which
reduces the risk of configure tests without any effect.

erl_interface: Allow erl_match() to match ERL_LONGLONG and ERL_U_LONGLONG terms
OTP-8400 Allow erl_match() to match ERL_LONGLONG and ERL_U_LONGLONG terms
(Thanks to Scott Lystig Fritchie).

|
The Erlang/OTP distro now includes 90% of what's required to handle signed and
unsigned ints up to 8 bytes long, so add this remaining (?) 10%.
|

|
|
The symbol ei_tracelevel was not declared extern which could
crash the linking step on some compilers.
Updated .gitignore to ignore object files in erl_interface.

Fix ei_skip_term() handling of funs encoded as NEW_FUN_EXT

new mandatory configuration variable that replaces all other
previously mandatory configuration variables, and better
documentation. Note that old cross compilation configurations
cannot be used without modifications.

Debug trace output for connection activity could be enabled
setting the trace level as an integer to the EI_TRACELEVEL
environment variable. This option could also be read and set from
a running program using ei_get_tracelevel(void) and
ei_set_tracelevel(int).
