This document describes the changes made to the Compiler application.

+
Compiler 7.3 + +
Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions + + +

Fixed a rare internal consistency failure caused by a + bug in the beam_jump pass. (Thanks to Simon + Cornish for reporting this bug.)

+

+ Own Id: OTP-15400 Aux Id: ERL-759

+
+ +

The compiler could fail with an internal consistency + check failure when compiling code that used the + is_function/2 BIF.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-15435 Aux Id: ERL-778

+
+ +

When an external fun was used, warnings for unused + variables could be suppressed.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-15437 Aux Id: ERL-762

+
+ +

The compiler would crash when compiling an + after block that called erlang:raise/3 like + this: erlang:raise(Class, Stacktrace, + Stacktrace)

+

+ Own Id: OTP-15481

+
+
+
+ + +
Improvements and New Features + + +

When specified, the +{source,Name} option will + now override the actual file name in stack traces, + instead of only affecting the return value of + Mod:module_info().

+

The +deterministic flag will also affect stack + traces now, omitting all path information except the file + name, fixing a long-standing issue where deterministic + builds required deterministic paths.

+
