This document describes the changes made to the STDLIB application.

+
STDLIB 1.19.2 + +
Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions + + +

The Erlang scanner no longer accepts floating point + numbers in the input string.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-10990

+ + +

+ When converting a faulty binary to a list with + unicode:characters_to_list, the error return value could + contain a faulty "rest", i.e. the io_list of characters + that could not be converted was wrong. This happened only + if input was a sub binary and conversion was from utf8. + This is now corrected.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-11080

+ + +

The type hook_function() has been corrected in + erl_pp, the Erlang Pretty Printer.

+

The printing of invalid forms, e.g. record field + types, has also been fixed. It has been broken since + R16B.

+

(Thanks to Tomáš Janoušek.)

Improvements and New Features + + +

+ + +

When selecting encoding of a script written in Erlang + (escript) the optional directive on the second + line is now recognized.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-10951

+ + +

The function erl_parse:abstract/2 has been + documented.

+ + +

+ Integrate elliptic curve contribution from Andreas + Schultz

+

+ In order to be able to support elliptic curve cipher + suites in SSL/TLS, additions to handle elliptic curve + infrastructure has been added to public_key and crypto.

+

+ This also has resulted in a rewrite of the crypto API to + gain consistency and remove unnecessary overhead. All OTP + applications using crypto has been updated to use the new + API.

+

+ Impact: Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) offers + equivalent security with smaller key sizes than other + public key algorithms. Smaller key sizes result in + savings for power, memory, bandwidth, and computational + cost that make ECC especially attractive for constrained + environments.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-11009

+ + +

+ Added sys:get_state/1,2 and sys:replace_state/2,3. Thanks + to Steve Vinoski.

Erlang source files with non-ASCII characters are now + encoded in UTF-8 (instead of latin1).
