* bjorn/stdlib/rand-export_seed/OTP-13162: Correct rand:export_seed/0 when there is no prior seed
2015-12-07Correct rand:export_seed/0 when there is no prior seedBjörn Gustavsson
According to the documentation, rand:export_seed/0 should return 'undefined' if the seed has not been intialized. However, it will create and return a seed. That means that the following code will not work as expected: case rand:export_seed() of undefined -> rand:seen({1,2,3}); _ -> ok end, rand:uniform(Range)

2015-12-03Extend erl_lint:format_error/1 to handle bittype mismatchesBjörn Gustavsson
erl_lint:format_error/1 would crash with a function error if conflicting types were given. That was most easily noticed in the shell: Eshell V7.0.3 (abort with ^G) 1> <<0/integer-binary>>. *** ERROR: Shell process terminated! *** Noticed-by: Aleksei Magusev
2015-12-03erl_lint_SUITE: Add smoke test of format_error/1Björn Gustavsson
The test suite depended on the compiler to call erl_lint:format_error/1 to ensure that format_error/1 was covered. Unfortunately, though, if format_error/1 crashed the compiler would catch the exception so that the test suite would not notice it. Add a smoke test of format_error/1 that will crash if there is any problem with erl_lint:format_error/1.

2015-11-18epp: Only flatten the original filenameBjörn Gustavsson
There is no need to flatten filenames using file_name/1 every time the current filename changes. Any filename obtained from a source file will be already flattened. Only the original source filename may need flattening.
2015-11-17epp: Modernize the internal data structuresBjörn Gustavsson
Use maps instead of 'dict'. Remove the {atom,MacroName} wrappers that were used for historical reasons.
2015-11-17epp: Eliminate the Type argument from expand_macros/5Björn Gustavsson
The Type argument is always 'atom', so there is no need for the argument.

2015-11-09io: Make a fast code path for i/o requestsBjörn Gustavsson
Unicode support was introduced in R13. The backward compatible code path in 'io' is unlikely to be used in practice. Therefore, make sure that the common case of an i/o server supporting unicode requests is as fast as possible, making sure to get rid of the mathing and re-building of tuples in the current code. Make the backward compatible code path work with a minimum of code.

2015-10-08stdlib: Refactor the supervisor module's stateHans Bolinder
The field 'dynamics' in #state{} is a union of two opaque types, which is possibly problematic. Tagging the types should make the code safe for warnings from future versions of Dialyzer.
2015-10-08Update Kernel and STDLIBHans Bolinder
Record field types have been modified due to commit 8ce35b2: "Take out automatic insertion of 'undefined' from typed record fields".
2015-10-08Take out automatic insertion of 'undefined' from typed record fieldsKostis Sagonas
Background ----------- In record fields with a type declaration but without an initializer, the Erlang parser inserted automatically the singleton type 'undefined' to the list of declared types, if that value was not present there. I.e. the record declaration: -record(rec, {f1 :: float(), f2 = 42 :: integer(), f3 :: some_mod:some_typ()}). was translated by the parser to: -record(rec, {f1 :: float() | 'undefined', f2 = 42 :: integer(), f3 :: some_mod:some_typ() | 'undefined'}). The rationale for this was that creation of a "dummy" #rec{} record should not result in a warning from dialyzer that e.g. the implicit initialization of the #rec.f1 field violates its type declaration. Problems --------- This seemingly innocent action has some unforeseen consequences. For starters, there is no way for programmers to declare that e.g. only floats make sense for the f1 field of #rec{} records when there is no `obvious' default initializer for this field. (This also affects tools like PropEr that use these declarations produced by the Erlang parser to generate random instances of records for testing purposes.) It also means that dialyzer does not warn if e.g. an is_atom/1 test or something more exotic like an atom_to_list/1 call is performed on the value of the f1 field. Similarly, there is no way to extend dialyzer to warn if it finds record constructions where f1 is not initialized to some float. Last but not least, it is semantically problematic when the type of the field is an opaque type: creating a union of an opaque and a structured type is very problematic for analysis because it fundamentally breaks the opacity of the term at that point. Change ------- To solve these problems the parser will not automatically insert the 'undefined' value anymore; instead the user has the option to choose the places where this value makes sense (for the field) and where it does not and insert the | 'undefined' there manually. Consequences of this change ---------------------------- This change means that dialyzer will issue a warning for all places where records with uninitialized fields are created and those fields have a declared type that is incompatible with 'undefined' (e.g. float()). This warning can be suppressed easily by adding | 'undefined' to the type of this field. This also adds documentation that the user really intends to create records where this field is uninitialized.
