* ks/type-doc-cleanup/OTP-10850:
Add support for printing <<_:_*1>> as bitstring()
Clean up of documentation of type language
|
|
|
|
Added: binary_to_integer/1,2, integer_to_binary/1,2
|
|
Prompted by noticing that the type language description was a bit vague
in its explanation of the syntax and semantics of bitstring types,
I decided to add this information. While at it, a general clean up and
rephrasing was performed. The binary() type is now described as an alias,
as it should be, and a bitstring() type is also described as a built-in
alias.

|
The code related to the introduction of unicode_string() and
unicode_char() has been removed. The types char() and string() have
been extended to include Unicode characters.
In fact char() was changed some time ago; this commit is about
cleaning up the documentation and introduce better names for some
functions.
|
|
Expect modifications, additions and corrections.
There is a kludge in file_io_server and
erl_scan:continuation_location() that's not so pleasing.

In the HTML version of the doc those spaces are necessary to separate
those words.

The module is not added in a function call inside a macro.

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.

These dependency files was once used when building the documentation,
but are no longer needed.

The two noncharacter code points 16#FFFE and 16#FFFF were not
allowed to be encoded or decoded using the unicode module or
bit syntax. That causes an inconsistency, since the noncharacters
16#FDD0 to 16#FDEF could be encoded/decoded.
There is two ways to fix that inconsistency.
We have chosen to allow 16#FFFE and 16#FFFF to be encoded and
decoded, because the noncharacters could be useful internally
within an application and it will make encoding and decoding
slightly faster.

"Its" is a possessive pronoun, "it's" is a contraction of
"it is".

The latest additions to the extension of Erlang used for describing
types and specifications have been documented. There are new compiler
attributes such as -opaque and -export_all as well as an alternative
syntax for subtype constraints ('::' instead of is_subtype/2).

Wrote and changed some tests in stdlib:erl_lint_SUITE
nowarn_bif_clash is obsoleted but will remove warnings and errors about bif
clashes. The recommended way is to use no_auto_import directives instead.
Hopefully erlang.erl is the only user in the world of nowarn_bif_clash.

* ta/nested-records:
Document R14 paren-less record access/update
Support nested record field access without parentheses
OTP-8597 ta/nested-records
Nested records can now be accessed without parenthesis. See the Reference
Manual for examples. (Thanks to YAMASHINA Hio and Tuncer Ayaz.)
|
|
Add a section to the reference manual describing the R14
change to not require parentheses when accessing or updating
fields in nested records.

is_boolean/1 was introduced in R10B, so this is a little
bit late...
