2014-10-20Allow maps for supervisor flags and child specsSiri Hansen
Earlier, supervisor flags and child specs were given as tuples. While this is kept for backwards compatibility, it is now also allowed to give these parameters as maps: -type sup_flags() :: #{strategy => strategy(), % optional intensity => non_neg_integer(), % optional period => pos_integer()} % optional -type child_spec() :: #{id => child_id(), % mandatory start => mfargs(), % mandatory restart => restart(), % optional shutdown => shutdown(), % optional type => worker(), % optional modules => modules()} % optional Default values are as follows: Supervisor flags: strategy: one_for_one intensity: 1 period: 5 Child specs: restart: permanent type: worker shutdown: 5000 for workers, 'infinity' for supervisors modules: [M], where M comes from the child's start {M,F,A} Some of these default values are quite hard to decide on, since there really is no "most common way". It always depends on the use case. So we decided that the most important reason for having default values is to lower the start barrier and get "something" running. For production use, most systems must be fine tuned in this respect anyway. This is how we reasoned about it: Strategy: just pick one - and 'one_for_one' was most used in OTP. Max restart frequency (intensity/period): by allowing one restart only we keep the important supervisor feature of restarting children, but we also avoid the possibility of scaling to a huge amount of restarts if the supervisor tree is deep. Restart: just pick one - and 'permanent' is fairly common. Shutdown for workers: to avoid the confusion of why the terminate function is not executed, we decided not to use 'brutal_kill'. Which number to use is probably not that important, so we chose 5000. Shutdown for supervisors: the recommended shutdown value for supervisors is 'infinity', so we decied to use that. Having the same (integer) value as for workers can give very strange results. Type: just pick one - and we believe that 'worker' is most common

2014-10-01Make shell ctrl-u save killed text correctlySteve Vinoski
Fix edlin to correctly save text killed with ctrl-u. Prior to this fix, entering text into the Erlang shell and then killing it with ctrl-u followed by yanking it back with ctrl-y would result in the yanked text being the reverse of the original killed text. Add a test for the fix to interactive_shell_SUITE. (This is the same fix as in PR#416, but that PR was never completed.)
