Elixir v1.0.4 is planned

[José Valim]

Hello folks,

We plan to release Elixir v1.0.4 next week. This release includes:

* Support for Erlang 17.5

* Support for starting applications as permanent (start_permanent)

* Support for building applications in embedded mode (build_embedded) - the embedded mode consolidates protocols and does not use symlinks. Once build_embedded is used, one can copy the _build directory anywhere and it should work as long as Elixir and Erlang are installed.

The biggest change is the third which means protocols will be automatically consolidated in production if build_embedded is set to true. For this reason, new applications have been changed to contain those two new options:

https://github.com/elixir-lang/elixir/blob/master/lib/mix/lib/mix/tasks/new.ex#L211-L212

We ask everyone to test this new release. There are a couple ways to test it:

* Compile Elixir from source: http://github.com/elixir-lang/elixir/tree/v1.0

* Use the precompiled package: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4934685/v1.0.4-dev.zip

In both cases, you will need to add the bin directory to your PATH. Instructions for precompiled and compiled from source are available in our website.

This release also includes some bug fixes. Please check the CHANGELOG.

Feedback is very, very welcome!

Compiled with Erlang 17.5, Tested with make test on OSX 10.10.2

-> no problems.

If you have one recommendation or one special thing to test, we can try.

[José Valim]

If you have one recommendation or one special thing to test, we can try.

Nothing in particular! Run your apps, open source projects, create a new demo application... Just play with it! If you can run it in production, even better.

Thanks for reporting!

I created a first cut at a table to contain testing results. Feel free
to add columns and fill in rows...

I have created a prerelease on GH in my fork of Elixir to be able to easily test it on Travis https://github.com/alco/elixir/releases/tag/v1.1-prerelease.

I had "Status" in mind, but "Success" works, too. (:-)

[José Valim]

I am planning to release v1.0.4 tomorrow as many people are running into issues when running latest Erlang with Elixir. So if you haven't tested yet, please do. :)

We have also ran v1.0.4 against Erlang 18.0 to make sure we won't have such issues in the upcoming 18.0 release.

Anyone using kerl to manage the erlang instance? I had used kerl earlier for erlang version 17.4. But that does it work for 17.5. If I list the releases, 17.5 is not showing up in that list.

[handnot2]

Resolved. I had to refresh the list.

kerl update releases

did it.

[Lars Hesel Christensen]

Erlang 17.5 + Elixir v1.0.4 tag works fine for compiling and running my
(non-production) dev projects.

Looks handy.

I don’t think I had anything to do with it though :)

Hi all,

Just wanted to update those that use Chocolatey NuGet on Windows for Elixir.  I've just updated Erlang to 17.5 and, of course, updated Elixir to 1.0.4.  As soon as the packages are approved for public download by the CNG moderators, I'll post here again.  It'll likely be before the end of the week.  Just wanted to let people know.

Glad to do what I can to help the community!

By the way, for those of you who've installed Elixir via Chocolatey NuGet (CNG) before, there is a change to the behavior of the installer starting with 1.0.4.  I was advised by the folks who maintain Chocolatey that the way I was deciding where to install the package on the machine was deprecated.  I modified the install script to use the preferred method but it does locate Elixir in a different directory (least on my Win8.1 box).  

1.0.3 and prior --> Elixir was installed into C:\

1.0.4 and after --> Elixir will be installed into c:\tools\

Of course that's assuming someone hasn't overridden the Chocolatey_Bin_Root environment variable on their machine.  

Anyway, just something to be aware of when 1.0.4 is approved for public consumption on CNG.

[Onorio Catenacci]

Elixir v1.0.4 is now available on ChocolateyNuGet.
