Yes, the record definition should have been<br><br>-record(collection, {id, values :: [property()]}).<br><br>and yes, correcting the record definition also solved the hang problem.<br><br>-Garret Smith<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

</div></div>Are you sure the record definition<br>
<div class="im">-record(collection, {id, values :: [#property{}]}).<br>
</div>is correct and wasn't meant to be<br>
-record(collection, {id, values :: [property()]}).<br>
or<br>
<div class="im">-record(collection, {id, values :: list(property())}).<br>
</div>?<br>
<br>
Only the first definition triggers a hang.<br>
