[erlang-questions] Dialyzer type specifications for macros with bitstrings makes erlc barf

[Sachin Panemangalore]

1. The following compiles fine in Erlang.

-define(MY_INT_MACRO, 1).

-define(MY_INT_MACRO, 2).

-type my_type() :: ?MY_INT_MACRO1 |  ?MY_INT_ MACRO2 .


2. The following doesn't

-define(MY_BITSTRING_MACRO, <<"01">>).

-define(MY_BITSTRING_MACRO, <<"02">>).

-type my_type() :: ?MY_BITSTRING_MACRO1 |  ?MY_BITSTRING_ MACRO2 .


Why ? and is there a way to make this work ?


Regards
