%%--------------------------------------------------------------------------- %% From: Per Hedeland %% Date: 11 Feb 2010 %% %% The code below demonstrates a bug in dialyzer - it produces the warning: %% Clause guard cannot succeed. %% The variable Cs was matched against the type any() %% for the first test/1 clause, but of course the claim can easily be easily %% refuted by calling test(#cs{}). %%--------------------------------------------------------------------------- -module(or_bug). -export([test/1]). -record(cs, {children = [], actions = []}). -define(is_internal(X), ((X#cs.children =/= []) or (X#cs.actions =/= []))). -define(has_children(X), (X#cs.children /= [])). test(Cs) when not ?is_internal(Cs) -> foo; test(Cs) when not ?has_children(Cs) -> bar; test(Cs) when Cs#cs.children =/= [] -> baz.
