# HIGHLIGHTS
- The JIT now generates better code for matching or creating binaries with
multiple little-endian segments.
Own Id: OTP-19747
Application(s): erts
Related Id(s): PR-10126
- In the documentation for the `compile` module, a section has been added with
recommendations for implementors of languages running on the BEAM.
Documentation has also been added for the `to_abstr`, `to_exp`, and
`from_abstr` options.
The documentation for erlc now lists `.abstr` as one of the supported
options.
When compiling with the `to_abstr` option, the resulting `.abstr` file now
retains any `-doc` attributes present in the source code.

- Native records as described in EEP-79 has been implemented.
A native record is a data structure similar to the traditional tuple-based
records, except that is a true data type.
Native records are considered experimental in Erlang/OTP 29 and possibly also
in Erlang/OTP 30, meaning that their behavior may change, potentially
requiring updates to applications that use them.

- The guard BIF `is_integer/3` has been added. It follows the design of the
original EEP-16, only changing the name from `is_between` to `is_integer`.
This BIF takes in 3 parameters, `Term`, `LowerBound`, and `UpperBound`.
It returns `true` if `Term`, `LowerBound`, and `UpperBound` are all integers,
and `LowerBound =< Term =< UpperBound`; otherwise, it returns false.
Example:
1> I = 42.
2> is_integer(I, 0, 100).
true

- There will now be a warning when exporting variables out of a subexpression.
For example:
case file:open(File, AllOpts = [write,{encoding,utf8}]) of
{ok,Fd} ->

end
To avoid the warning, this can be rewritten to:
AllOpts = [write,{encoding,utf8}],
case file:open(File, AllOpts) of
{ok,Fd} ->
{Fd,AllOpts}
end
The warning can be suppressed by giving option `nowarn_export_var_subexpr` to
the compiler.

- Before Erlang/OTP 29, attempting to bind variables in a comprehension would
compile successfully but fail at runtime. Example:
1> fh(List) -> [H || E <- List, H = erlang:phash2(E), H rem 10 =:= 0].
ok
2> fh(lists:seq(1, 10)).
* exception error: bad filter 2614250
In Erlang/OTP 29, attempting to bind a variable in a comprehension will fail
by default:
1> fh(List) -> [H || E <- List, H = erlang:phash2(E), H rem 10 =:= 0].
* 5:14: matches using '=' are not allowed in comprehension qualifiers
unless the experimental 'compr_assign' language feature is enabled.
With 'compr_assign' enabled, a match 'P = E' will behave as a
strict generator 'P <-:- [E]'."
However, this example will work as expected if the `compr_assign` feature is
enabled when starting the runtime system:
$ erl -enable-feature compr_assign
. . .
1> fh(List) -> [H || E <- List, H = erlang:phash2(E), H rem 10 =:= 0].
ok
2> fh(lists:seq(1, 10)).

requests that modified vendor files. Scheduled vendor vulnerability scans were
correct.

`maint-`XX will work as expected, analyzing their vendor dependencies.

## Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions
- For a function such as the following:
bar(S0) ->
S1 = setelement(8, S0, a),
S2 = setelement(7, S1, b),
setelement(5, S2, c).
the compiler would keep all of the calls to `setelement/3` and emit extra
unnecessary `set_tuple_element` instructions.
This has been corrected so that the compiler will never emit code that uses
the `set_tuple_element` instruction. In a future release, support for the
`set_tuple_element` will be removed from the runtime system.

- There will now be a warning for matches that unify constructors, such as the
following:
m({a,B} = {Y,Z}) -> . . .
Such a match can be rewritten to:
m({a=Y,B=B}) -> . . .
The compiler option `nowarn_match_alias_pats` can be used to disable the

# crypto-5.9
## Improvements and New Features
- The rand:bytes/1 and rand:bytes_s/2 functions have been optimized by
implementing a new internal callback function that crypto:rand_seed_alg/1
and crypto:alg_seed_alg_s/1 have been updated to use.
A new algorithm `crypto_prng1`, which also takes advantage of this new
internal callback, has been added to crypto:rand_seed_alg/2 and
crypto:rand_seed_alg_s/2. It is much faster then the existing `crypto_aes`,
in particular for generating bytes.

- For a function such as the following:
bar(S0) ->
S1 = setelement(8, S0, a),
S2 = setelement(7, S1, b),
setelement(5, S2, c).
the compiler would keep all of the calls to `setelement/3` and emit extra
unnecessary `set_tuple_element` instructions.
This has been corrected so that the compiler will never emit code that uses
the `set_tuple_element` instruction. In a future release, support for the
`set_tuple_element` will be removed from the runtime system.

With 'compr_assign' enabled, a match 'P = E' will behave as a
strict generator 'P <-:- [E]'."
However, this example will work as expected if the `compr_assign` feature is
enabled when starting the runtime system:
$ erl -enable-feature compr_assign
. . .
1> fh(List) -> [H || E <- List, H = erlang:phash2(E), H rem 10 =:= 0].
ok
2> fh(lists:seq(1, 10)).
[2614250]
Here is another example how `compr_assign` can be used:
-module(example).
-feature(compr_assign, enable).
-export([cat/1]).
cat(Files) ->
[Char || F <- Files,
{ok, Bin} = file:read_file(F),
Char <- unicode:characters_to_list(Bin)].

- Removed the undocumented `dyn_erl` utility.

- The functions erl_tar:add/3 and erl_tar:add/4 now accepts the
`{mode,Mode}` option for setting the permission of the file.

- Added zstd:flush/2 for flushing compressed data without closing the
compression context.

- There will now be a warning when using the `catch` operator, which has been
deprecated for a long time.
It is recommended to instead use `try`...`catch` but is also possible to
disable the warning by using the `nowarn_deprecated_catch` option.

- Multi-valued comprehensions according to EEP 78 has been implemented.
Example:

- There will now be a warning for matches that unify constructors, such as the
following:
m({a,B} = {Y,Z}) -> . . .
Such a match can be rewritten to:
m({a=Y,B=B}) -> . . .
The compiler option `nowarn_match_alias_pats` can be used to disable the
warning.
