2011-11-07EEP-23: Allow variables in fun M:F/ABjörn Gustavsson
Currently, the external fun syntax "fun M:F/A" only supports literals. That is, "fun lists:reverse/1" is allowed but not "fun M:F/A". In many real-life situations, some or all of M, F, A are not known until run-time, and one is forced to either use the undocumented erlang:make_fun/3 BIF or to use a "tuple fun" (which is deprecated). EEP-23 suggests that the parser (erl_parse) should immediately transform "fun M:F/A" to "erlang:make_fun(M, F, A)". We have not followed that approach in this implementation, because we want the abstract code to mirror the source code as closely as possible, and we also consider erlang:make_fun/3 to be an implementation detail that we might want to remove in the future. Instead, we will change the abstract format for "fun M:F/A" (in a way that is not backwards compatible), and while we are at it, we will move the translation from "fun M:F/A" to "erlang:make_fun(M, F, A)" from sys_pre_expand down to the v3_core pass. We will also update the debugger and xref to use the new format. We did consider making the abstract format backward compatible if no variables were used in the fun, but decided against it. Keeping it backward compatible would mean that there would be different abstract formats for the no-variable and variable case, and tools would have to handle both formats, probably forever.

2011-10-27erl_tidy: Eliminate two references to 'regexp' in the documentationBjörn Gustavsson
2011-04-01Fix a bug in erl_recommentHans Bolinder
In a file containing declarations and comments without any empty lines between them, the recomment_forms() function would associate a multi-line comment with the declaration above it rather than the one following it. (Thanks to Richard Carlsson.) This bug has been reported several times. It was corrected by Kostis Sagonas, but the fix didn't make into the R14B02 release.
2010-10-26syntax_tools: Fix an erroneous type and strengthen some specsKostis Sagonas
The declaration of the stubDescriptop() type in 'igor' was erroneous, both in the -type and in the published documentation of the module. While fixing this some specs where strengthened and used a remote type to refer to ordsets:ordset(T). Consequently, this patch depends on the ordsets module exporting the ordset/1 type.
2010-10-05syntax_tools: Add types to record definitionsKostis Sagonas
2010-09-24Fix crash in epp_dodger:tokens_to_string/1Maria Christakis
Add a function clause in the epp_dodger:tokens_to_string/1 to avoid a crash in case the argument is a character.
2010-06-03syntax_tools: Add declarations for exported typesKostis Sagonas
2010-06-02Remove (harmless) warnings about min/max in core applicationsPatrik Nyblom
2010-05-06Fix an erroneous specKostis Sagonas
While at it, take out redundant code.
2010-02-14syntax_tools: Add types and specs for most exported functionsKostis Sagonas
While at it, consistently replace "bool()" with "boolean()" in the Edoc specs.
2010-02-14syntax_tools: Support the --enable-native-libs configure optionKostis Sagonas
While at it, turn on some more warnings.

2010-01-26OTP-8343 The documentation is now possible to build in an open sourceLars G Thorsen
environment after a number of bugs are fixed and some features are added in the documentation build process. - The arity calculation is updated. - The module prefix used in the function names for bif's are removed in the generated links so the links will look like http://www.erlang.org/doc/man/erlang.html#append_element-2 instead of http://www.erlang.org/doc/man/erlang.html#erlang:append_element-2 - Enhanced the menu positioning in the html documentation when a new page is loaded. - A number of corrections in the generation of man pages (thanks to Sergei Golovan) - Moved some man pages to more apropriate sections, pages in section 4 moved to 5 and pages in 6 moved to 7. - The legal notice is taken from the xml book file so OTP's build process can be used for non OTP applications.
