👑 FUNCTIONS 👑

module(AbsForms, CompileOptions) -> AbsForms2

module(AbsForms, CompileOptions) -> AbsForms2
                when
                    AbsForms :: [erl_parse:abstract_form()],
                    AbsForms2 :: [erl_parse:abstract_form()],
                    CompileOptions :: [compile:option()].

okay so what does this icon do? It expands all records in a module to use explicit tuple operations and adds explicit module names to calls to BIFs and imported functions. The returned module has no references to records, attributes, or code. periodt. 🎀

sign-off bestie: this page came from Ericsson AB, stdlib 8.0.4, and the manual page is erl_expand_records(3). the original footer has no date line, so no made-up date here — just the source/version tea. mwah 💖
