2016-02-17stdlib: Update ms_transform to handle typed record fieldsHans Bolinder
2016-02-17stdlib: Modify the preprocessor as to expose typed record fieldsHans Bolinder
Problem: The types of record fields have since R12B been put in a separate form by epp:parse_file(), leaving the record declaration form untyped. The separate form, however, does not follow the syntax of type declarations, and parse transforms inspecting -type() attributes need to know about the special syntax. Since the compiler stores the return value of epp:parse_file() as debug information in the abstract code chunk ("Abst" or 'abstract_code'), tools too need to know about the special syntax, if they inspect -type() attributes in abstract code. Solution: As of this commit no separate form is created by epp:parse_file(), but the type information kept in the record fields. This means that all parse transforms and all tools inspecting -record() declarations need to recognize {typed_record_field, Field, Type}. We recommend that all parse transforms and tools be updated as to recognize typed record fields. Discussion: As of OTP 19.0, the abstract form of type declarations and function specifications is documented. An (unsatisfactory) alternative to the above solution is to document two formats of the abstract form of typed record fields: one if returned by epp:parse_file(); and one if returned by, for example, epp:parse_erl_form(). Yet another (bad) alternative is to not document the format returned by epp:erl_parse(), but instead document the idempotent function epp:restore_typed_record_fields/1, and urge authors of parse transform and tools to always call this function.

2016-02-03Speed up supervisor:count_children/1; simple_one_for_oneRory Byrne
Speed up supervisor:count_children/1 for simple_one_for_one supervisors. This is achieved by avoiding looping through all the child process and verifying that each one is alive. For a supervisor with 100,000 'temporary' children the count-time will drop from approx 25ms to about 0.005ms. For a supervisor with 100,000 'permanent' or 'transient' children the count-time will drop from approx 30ms to about 0.005ms. This avoids having the supervisor block for an extended period while the count takes place. Under normal circumstances the accuracy of the result should also improve since the duration is too short for many processes to die during the count.
2016-02-03Add supervisor:get_callback_module/1Siri Hansen
This function is used by release_handler during upgrade. This was earlier implemented in the release_handler, but it required a copy og the definition of the supervisor's internal state, which caused problems when this state was updated.

2016-01-29Eliminate redundant double is_function testBjörn Gustavsson
When tuple funs were still supported, the idiom for allowing real funs with a certain arity but not tuple funs was: is_function(Fun) andalso is_function(Fun, Arity) The reason that both tests were needed is because: is_function({M,F}) would return 'false' is_function({M,F}, Arity) would return 'true' In 53ec991d19, is_function/2 was updated to only return 'false' for tuples, so the call to is_function/1 can be removed.

2016-01-26Fix a race bug affecting dets_SUITE:open_file/2Hans Bolinder
The Dets server pretends the file is open before internal_open() has been called, which means that unless the internal_open message is applied first, other processes can find the pid by calling dets_server:get_pid() and do things before Head has been initialized properly.
2016-01-20Introduce time warp safe replacement for safe_fixed optionRickard Green
The new time warp safe option is safe_fixed_monotonic_time which gives erlang:monotonic_time(). The safe_fixed option was also slightly changed. It now gives erlang:timestamp() instead of erlang:now(). This has however not been documented, so it is considered a compatible change. The above effects both ets, and dets. This commit also include the bugfix OTP-13239 for dets:info(Tab, safe_fixed). The timestamp in the result returned by dets:info(Tab, safe_fixed) was unintentionally broken as a result of the time API rewrites in OTP 18.0.

2016-01-01Do not consider "." part of names in edlinJosé Valim
Today, if you press Ctrl+W inside erl, it will erase word chars including dots. This may have made sense in the past when Erlang had packages, but today considering the most common case for dots inside erl is to work with records, considering the dot part of the word is rather a mistake. For example, imagine the following code, where [] is the cursor: 1> S#elixir_scope.name[] When I press Ctrl+W it erases all up to #: 1> S#[] This patch changes it to the dot is no longer considered part of the name: 1> S#elixir_scope.[] Which is rather expected behaviour for most use cases of dot in Erlang.
