* vinoski/sys-get-rep-state2: remove tuple funs from special process documentation fix sys:get_state/1,2 and sys:replace_state/2,3 when sys suspended OTP-11817
2014-03-21remove tuple funs from special process documentationSteve Vinoski
Support for tuple funs was removed in R16B but the documentation for special processes, sys, and proc_lib in the OTP Design Principles still showed examples using them, and those examples no longer worked. Fix the examples to use regular functions instead and fix the documentation to reflect the changes.
2014-03-21fix sys:get_state/1,2 and sys:replace_state/2,3 when sys suspendedSteve Vinoski
Add two new system callbacks Module:system_get_state/1 and Module:system_replace_state/2 to allow sys:get_state/1,2 and sys:replace_state/2,3 to operate correctly even if a process is sys suspended. Modify gen_server, gen_fsm, and gen_event to support the new callbacks. If a callback module does not export these functions, then by default the Misc value (the same as that passed as the final argument to sys:handle_system_msg/6, and returned as part of the return value of sys:get_status/1,2) is treated as the callback module's state. The previous behaviour of intercepting the system message and passing a tuple of size 2 as the last argument to sys:handle_system_msg/6 is no longer supported. Add tests to verify the correctness of sys:get_state/1,2 and sys:replace_state/2,3 when processes are sys suspended. Add two tests for modules that implement special processes, one that exports system_get_state/1 and system_replace_state/2 and one that doesn't. Much of the credit for this patch goes to James Fish, who reported the initial problem and implemented much of the fix.

files as delimiters. While working on a tool that processes Erlang code and testing it against this repo, I found out about those little sneaky 0xff. I thought it may be of help to other people build such tools to remove non-conforming-to-standard characters.
