2017-11-20erts: Implement batching maps:iteratorLukas Larsson
This iterator implementation fetches multiple elements to iterate over in one call to erts_internal:maps_next instead of one at a time. This means that the memory usage will go up for the iterator as we are buffering elements, but the usage is still bounded. In this implementation the max memory usage is 1000 words. Using this approach makes the iterator as fast as using maps:to_list, so maps:iterator/2 has been removed.

compose_query/{1,2} and dissect_query/1 removed as the implemented specification (HTML 2.0) is old. They will be re-implemented based on HTML5.

2017-10-11Don't allow null chars in various stringsRickard Green
Various places that now reject null chars inside strings - Primitive file operations reject it in filenames. - Primitive environment variable operations reject it in names and values. - os:cmd() reject it in its input. Also '=' characters are rejected by primitive environment variable operations in environment variable names. Documentation has been updated to document null characters in these types of data as invalid. Currently these operations accept null chars at the end of strings, but that will change in the future.

2017-10-04Implement escaping of special characters in wildcardsBjörn Gustavsson
Allow characters with special meaning to be escaped using \ (which must be writen as \\ in a string). That allows matching of filenames containing characters that are special in wildcards. This is an incompatible change, but note that the use of backslashes in wildcards would already work differently on Windows and Unix. Take for example this call: filelib:wildcard("a\\b") On Windows, filelib:wildcard/1 would look for a directory named "a", and a file or directory named "b" inside it. On Unix, filelib:wildcard/1 would look for a file named "a\\b". With this commit applied, filelib:wildcard/1 will look for a file named "ab" on both Windows and Unix. https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-451

2017-09-27Do not load .erlang from current dirDan Gudmundsson
It may be confusing that "hidden" .erlang is loaded from the current working directory. Use c:erlangrc([Dir1,..]) to search and load .erlang from other places than "$HOME/.erlang". Implies that c:erlangrc() needs to be documented.

2017-08-05Add {continue, Term} and handle_continue/2 to gen_serverJosé Valim
If the gen_server process needs to perform an action immediately after initialization or to break the execution of a callback into multiple steps, it can return {continue, term()} in place of the time-out or hibernation value, which will immediately invoke the handle_continue/2 callback with the given term. This provides a more accessible approach to after initialization compared to proc_lib+enter_loop that is also guaranteed to be safe. It also allows callbacks that need to do lengthy or stateful work to checkpoint the state throughout multiple iterations. This can be useful, for example, when implementing behaviours on top of gen_server.
