Good evening,
/OTP R10B has been published
I just wanted to let you know that Erlang/OTP R10B has been published.
Erlang is a concurrency-oriented development environment that is
particularly suited to develop scalable, distributed and fault-tolerant
server applications.
This is a major release. Several improvements have been made to the
Erlang environment:
- The performance has been increased regarding process management. The
maximum number of simultaneous process on a given virtual machine has
been increased. You can now create 268435456 lightweight processus.
- A new tutorial has been included in this release and is particularly
useful to start programming with the Erlang environment.
- the try ... catch syntax has been added to the language
- A new syntax called "Query List Comprehensions" has been added. This
syntax can be used to request the Mnesia database.
- Several new applications have been added: XMerl (XML parser) et Edoc
(Erlang code documentation generator)
- The Erlang shell has been improved and now supports record directly in
the shell.
This release can be downloaded from http://www.erlang.org/
Have fun !
