"i386-unknown-netbsdelf2.0." directory when a "i386--netbsdelf"
one is present. Someone who wants to read gmake files is going
to have to fix that.
That aside, its now equivalemtly broken with bl3 rather than bl2.
curses.buildlink2.mk. This was wrong because we _really_ do want to
express that we want _n_curses when we include the buildlink2.mk file.
We should have a better way to say that the NetBSD curses doesn't
quite work well enough. In fact, it's far better to depend on ncurses
by default, and exceptionally note when it's okay to use NetBSD curses
for specific packages. We will look into this again in the future.
This version is focused on improved performance and stability,
rather than introducing new functionality, hence it is called R9C.
Build Process NEW
The build process has been improved so that it is possible to build
Erlang/OTP from source even on Windows platforms. There is also a
completely new installation program for Windows.
Observer
crashdump_viewer NEW
A HTML based tool for browsing Erlang crashdumps. The tool can handle
crashdumps from OTP R7B, R8B and R9B as well but there is additional
information in the crashdumps for R9C.
OTP_MIBs NEW
The OTP mibs that where included in the SASL application have been
moved to this new application otp_mibs. This is a step too create a
pure core for Erlang/OTP that does not depend on specific,
non-mainstream applications such as SNMP.
Erlang is a programming language which has many features more commonly
associated with an operating system than with a programming language:
concurrent processes, scheduling, memory management, distribution,
networking, etc.
The initial open-source Erlang release contains the implementation of
Erlang, as well as a large part of Ericsson's middleware for building
distributed high-availability systems.
