2015-10-22beam_lib: Document all_chunks/1 and build_module/1Björn Gustavsson
beam_lib:all_chunks/1 and beam_lib:build_module/1 can be useful for special-purpose stripping, for example to remove the "Line" chunk.

2015-06-15dialyzer: Modify the handling of parametrized opaque typesHans Bolinder
In OTP 17 it is possible to mix types such as dict:dict() and dict:dict(_, _) outside of the dict module (and similarly for some other opaque types in STDLIB), but the results are unfortunately possibly invalid warnings in users' code. In OTP 18 parameterized opaque types with the same name but with different number of parameters are no longer compatible when seen from outside of the module where the types are declared. The types in STDLIB have been updated accordingly; for instance -opaque dict() :: dict(_, _). has been replaced by -type dict() :: dict(_, _).
2015-06-03Break out assert macros from eunit to stdlib assert.hrlRichard Carlsson
Several people have requested that the assert macros in EUnit should be moved out to a separate header file. This patch puts them in stdlib/include/assert.hrl, which gets included by the eunit.hrl file. Thus, nothing changes for eunit users, but the asserts can now also be included separately.

* fishcakez/supervisor_ignore: Don't store child that returns ignore in simple supervisor OTP-12793
2015-05-29Update orddict with parameterized types and specsUENISHI Kota
With parametrized types and specs, modules using orddict can be statically checked with dialyzer. Although orddict have not been builtin types, it is good and more natural to have its exported types and specs aligned to builtin types.
2015-05-26Don't store child that returns ignore in simple supervisorJames Fish
If a child of a simple_one_for_one returns ignore from its start function no longer store the child for any restart type. It is not possible to restart or delete the child because the supervisor is a simple_one_for_one. Previously a simple_one_for_one would crash, potentially without shutting down all of its children, when it tried to shutdown a child with undefined pid. Previous only one undefined pid child was stored in a simple_one_for_one supervisor no matter how many times the child start function returned ignore.

It is needed in various tests. It uses the Ziggurat algorithm, which is the fastest that I know.
2015-04-30stdlib: Use module erl_annoHans Bolinder
2015-04-30stdlib: Add module erl_annoHans Bolinder
Introduce erl_anno, an abstraction of the second element of tokens and tuples in the abstract format. The convention that negative line numbers can be used for silencing compiler warnings will no longer work in OTP 19; instead the annotation 'generated' is to be used.
