It looks as though the type improper_list/2 isn't defined in R14B02. Here's
my file:
-module(bug).
-type ok() :: list(float()).
-type foo() :: improper_list(float(),integer()).
-type baz() :: maybe_improper_list(float(),integer()).
Here's the output:
47> c(bug).
./bug.erl:5: type improper_list(_,_) undefined
./bug.erl:4: Warning: type ok() is unused
./bug.erl:5: Warning: type foo() is unused
./bug.erl:6: Warning: type baz() is unused
error
And here's the documentation:
List :: list(Type) %% Proper list ([]-terminated)
| improper_list(Type1, Type2) %% Type1=contents,
Type2=termination
| maybe_improper_list(Type1, Type2) %% Type1 and Type2 as above
Either I'm missing something very obvious, or the compiler doesn't know
about improper_list.
