2010-06-02Merge branch 'jv/autoimport-binary_to_term_2' into devErlang/OTP
* jv/autoimport-binary_to_term_2: Change binary_to_term/2 to be auto-imported OTP-8671 jv/autoimport-binary_to_term_2 Now, binary_to_term/2 is auto-imported. This will cause a compile warning if and only if a module has got a local function with that name.
2010-06-02Evaluate element/2 at compile-time using type informationBjörn Gustavsson
The erl_expand_records compiler pass translates the following code: h(X) when X#r1.a =:= 1 -> ok. to (essentially): h({r1,V1,V2}=X) when element(2, X) =:= 1 -> ok. Since the guard can only be executed when the pattern matching has succeeded, we know that the second element in the tuple X must have been bound to V2. Thus we can eliminate the call to element/2 like this: h({r1,V1,V2}=X) when V1 =:= 1 -> ok.
2010-06-02erl_expand_records: Replace is_record() with matchingBjörn Gustavsson
The compiler currently generates better code for: f(#r1{}) -> r1; f(#r2{}) -> r2; f(#r3{}) -> r3. than for: g(X) when is_record(X, r1) -> r1; g(X) when is_record(X, r2) -> r2; g(X) when is_record(X, r3) -> r3. The compiler generates good code for pattern matching (as in f/1), but in g/1 there are no patterns to match, and the clause to be executed must be chosen by evaluating the guards sequentially until one succeeds. Make the compiler generate better code by replacing calls to is_record() with matching in the function head (basically, g/1 will automatically be rewritten to do pattern matching as in f/1). Note that this rewrite will also benefit code such as: h(X) when X#r1.a =:= 1 -> ok. because it would have been rewritten to: h(X) when (is_record(X, r1, 3) orelse fail) and (element(2, X) =:= 1) -> ok. which in turn will be rewritten to: h({r1,_,_}=X) when (true orelse fail) and (element(2, X) =:= 1) -> ok. (That will be further simplified in later compiler passes.)

2010-05-27handle {global, term()} names in format_status/2Steve Vinoski
The gen_fsm, gen_server, and wx_object format_status implementations fail to handle global names of the form {global, term()} where term() is something other than an atom, pid, or list. Change these format_status implementations to treat names that are atoms, pids, or lists as before, but for all other terms, set the header property of the function return value to a tuple whose first element is a string describing the return value and whose second element is the name term. Add unit tests for gen_server and gen_fsm to verify sys:get_status calls work successfully for globally registered instances.
2010-05-24Change binary_to_term/2 to be auto-importedJayson Vantuyl
While binary_to_term/2 was added in R13B04, it wasn't auto-imported. This conformed to longstanding policy of not changing auto-imports between major versions. This patch contains changes to auto-import binary_to_term/2 to coincide with the release of R14.
2010-05-21Merge branch 'sv/format_status_error_info' into devErlang/OTP
* sv/format_status_error_info: Add support for the format_status callback to gen_event Extend format_status for gen_server/gen_fsm termination error logging OTP-8630 sv/format_status_error_info When a gen_server, gen_fsm process, or gen_event terminates abnormally, sometimes the text representation of the process state can occupy many lines of the error log, depending on the definition of the state term. A mechanism to trim out parts of the state from the log has been added (using a format_status/2 callback). See the documentation.

2010-05-12Add support for the format_status callback to gen_eventSteve Vinoski
The gen_server and gen_fsm behaviors support the format_status callback to allow developers to specialize how callback module state appears within the return value of sys:get_status and within logged output resulting from abnormal process termination. This patch adds similar support to gen_event. Event handlers that export a format_status/2 function, which is an optional callback, and are registered with an event manager will now have their format_status callbacks invoked when sys:get_status is called on the event manager. The term returned from format_status for this case replaces the default handler state in the sys:get_status return value. This patch also extends gen_event to call an event handler's format_status function (if it exports one) should the handler terminate abnormally. The term returned from format_status is logged in place of the handler's state. This is intended to allow developers to control how much output is logged in the case of abnormal termination. The documentation is appropriately extended and new unit tests are added to cover the new gen_event format_status functionality.
2010-05-12Extend format_status for gen_server/gen_fsm termination error loggingSteve Vinoski
When a gen_server or gen_fsm process terminates abnormally, sometimes the text representation of the process state can occupy many lines of the error log, depending on the definition of the state term. Developers sometimes would like a way to trim out parts of the state from the log if those parts don't contribute to documenting the circumstances of the error, thereby helping to reduce the amount of logged output. Since the format_status callback can already format and specialize gen_server and gen_fsm state for inclusion in the term returned from sys:get_status, this patch extends format_status in a backward-compatible way to also be able to specialize the state logged for abnormal gen_server and gen_fsm termination, and includes new unit tests to verify the new functionality. This patch also eliminates the previous restriction that the status returned by format_status must be a list. It can now be any term. The documentation is extended to cover the new usage for format_status, and it's been improved to recommend a form for the normal case that allows the returned status to fit well with the rest of the term returned by sys:get_status. The documentation is clear that this form is only recommended, not required.

That optimization will benefit calls to gen_server:call(). (See gen:do_call/4 for an example of a receive statement that will be optimized.)
2010-05-11Merge branch 'bg/beam_lib' into devErlang/OTP
* bg/beam_lib: Remove redundant includes Make beam_lib:cmp/2 stricter OTP-8625 bg/beam_lib The beam_lib:cmp/2 function now compares BEAM files in stricter way. The BEAM files will be considered different if there are any changes except in the compilation information ("CInf") chunk. beam_lib:cmp/2 used to ignore differences in the debug information (significant for Dialyzer) and other chunks that did not directly change the run-time behavior.

2010-05-10gen: Inline wait_resp_mon/2 to help the compiler optimizeBjörn Gustavsson
We are about to introduce a new optimization that requires the creation of a monitor and the following receive statement to be in the same function.
2010-05-06Remove redundant includesBjörn Gustavsson
2010-05-06Make beam_lib:cmp/2 stricterBjörn Gustavsson
The beam_lib:cmp/2 function only compares the executable parts of the BEAM files, not attributes or abstract code. Since the types and specs (used by Dialyzer) are contained in the abstract code, beam_lib:cmp/2 will return 'ok' if the only difference between two BEAM file are in the types or specs. If an Erlang/OTP system is installed in a revision control system, and beam_lib:cmp/2 is used to avoid committing unchanged but newly compiled BEAM files, BEAM files with no other changes than in types or specs may not get updated, which can problems if Dialyzer or the debugger is run. To avoid that problem, change beam_lib:cmp/2 to compare all chunks *except* for the "CInf" chunk. The "CInf" chunk contains the compilation time, compiler options, and compiler version.

Original patch from YAMASHINA Hio posted to erlang-patches@ on Tue Jun 12 11:27:53 CEST 2007: http://www.erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-patches/2007-June/000182.html http://fleur.hio.jp/pub/erlang/record2.patch Only had to do minor changes to port the patch to the current R14A development tree. Also added compiler/record_SUITE:nested_access/2 to test nested record access with or without parentheses.
