* josevalim/jv-persistent-set-env: Allow persistent option on set_env/4 and unset_env/3 OTP-11708
2014-02-11Allow persistent option on set_env/4 and unset_env/3José Valim
An environment key set with the persistent option will not be overridden by the ones configured in the application resource file on load. This means persistent values will stick after the application is loaded and also on application reload.

2012-12-10Fix printout of application crash message on startupserge
This is what a sample crash message looks like before applying patch: Kernel pid terminated (application_controller) ({application_start_failure,cmp,{{bad_return_value, {doc_root_not_exists,[46,47,119,119,119]}},{cmp_app,start,[normal,[]]}}}) This is what a sample crash message looks like after applying patch: Kernel pid terminated (application_controller) ({application_start_failure,cmp,{{bad_return_value, {doc_root_not_exists,"./www"}},{cmp_app,start,[normal,[]]}}})
2012-09-13Don't allow {Mod,Vsn} in modules list in .app fileSiri Hansen
It was possible to insert {Mod::atom(),Vsn::term()} instead of Mod::atom() in the modules list in a .app file. This was not visible in the documentation of .app files, but it was visible in the documentation of application:load/[1,2] (where the .app file term can be used directly as first argument). The Vsn part was never used, so this possibility has now been removed.
2011-11-15Add env var shutdown_timeout to kernel to avoid deadlock on node shutdownSiri Hansen
When a node is shutting down, application_controller will do exit(Pid,shutdown) on all application masters, and wait for {'EXIT',Pid,_}. If, for some reason, the application master does not terminate then application_controller will hang forever waiting for this 'EXIT' message. To overcome this problem, a configurable timer is added to kernel - the enviroment variable 'shutdown_timeout'. If this variable is set to a positive integer T, application_controller will do exit(Pid,kill) after T milli seconds if no 'EXIT' message is received.
