It is recommended that you use tags if you do not want bleeding edge and development content for this library.
Changelog
---------
- 1.2.0:
- add `recon_alloc:snapshot*` functions, which allow memory allocation
snapshots to be taken, saved on disk, reloaded, and analyzed on-demand.
Thanks to Lukas Larsson for this functionality.
- 1.1.0:
- add `recon_lib:term_to_port` to convert a string back to a
usable port.
- add `recon:port_info/1` and `recon:port_info/2`
- add `recon_alloc` module
- 1.0.0: add `info/2` and `info/4`. The `memory` info type thus gets renamed
to `memory_used`, in order to avoid conflicts when picking between a type
and a specific process attribute. Types exported by the module also get
updated.
- 0.4.2: extended `app_deps.erl` to read apps/ directories for releases
- 0.4.1: fixed bug where nodes with lots of processes could see the GC call
fail if said processes failed between long calls within the `bin_leak`
function call.
- 0.4.0: fixed bug where nodes with lots of processes or ports could see their
count or window functions fail because a process or socket closed between the
time the function started and before it finished. This ends up changing the
API in `recon_lib` for the window and count functions that take a specific
pid as an argument.
- 0.3.1: factored out some logic from `recon:info/1` into `recon_lib:term_to_pid`
and allowed arbitrary terms to be used for pids in `recon:get_state/1`.
