2016-04-21Modify code_change/4 to return CallbackModeRaimo Niskanen
Also move check of non-atom states in callback mode state_functions to where the state function is called. This gives homogenous diagnostics for state functions, code_change/4 and system_replace_state StateFun. Irregularities pointed out by James Fish.

- at appending when allocating new binary object its size will be double (the old size + size of data to be appended) not just double the old size - correct some unused byte counts

2015-03-20Introduce a new time APIRickard Green
The old time API is based on erlang:now/0. The major issue with erlang:now/0 is that it was intended to be used for so many unrelated things. This tied these unrelated operations together and unnecessarily caused performance, scalability as well as accuracy, and precision issues for operations that do not need to have such issues. The new API spreads different functionality over multiple functions in order to improve on this. The new API consists of a number of new BIFs: - erlang:convert_time_unit/3 - erlang:monotonic_time/0 - erlang:monotonic_time/1 - erlang:system_time/0 - erlang:system_time/1 - erlang:time_offset/0 - erlang:time_offset/1 - erlang:timestamp/0 - erlang:unique_integer/0 - erlang:unique_integer/1 - os:system_time/0 - os:system_time/1 and a number of extensions of existing BIFs: - erlang:monitor(time_offset, clock_service) - erlang:system_flag(time_offset, finalize) - erlang:system_info(os_monotonic_time_source) - erlang:system_info(time_offset) - erlang:system_info(time_warp_mode) - erlang:system_info(time_correction) - erlang:system_info(start_time) See the "Time and Time Correction in Erlang" chapter of the ERTS User's Guide for more information.

2015-03-12Replace "lambda head" with "fun" in compiler warningBjörn Gustavsson
We no longer use the term "lambda".

It is hardly useful to mention that funs used to be represented as tuples in ancient releases.
