<  Erlang bugs mailing list  ~  Diaylzer in R14A with opaque types

Hi,

when I run dialyzer of R14A on the attached code, it complains about the
new_neighborhood/1 function:
nodelist.erl:12: Invalid type specification for function
nodelist:new_neighborhood/1. The success typing is (_) -> {[any(),...]}

However, when I change the type nodelist() from opaque to non-opaque (see
comment), dialyzer accepts the code. The types seem to be correct. The problem
seems to be with nested opaque types.

Thorsten

-module(nodelist).

-export([new_neighborhood/1]).

-export_type([nodelist/0, neighborhood/0]).

-type(node_type() :: node_type).

-opaque(nodelist() :: [node_type()]). % change to -type
-opaque(neighborhood() :: {nodelist()}).

-spec new_neighborhood(Node::node_type()) -> neighborhood().
new_neighborhood(Node) ->
{[Node]}.

Indeed. Thanks for reporting this!

The problem has been fixed (thanks to Maria Christakis) and the fix will
appear in R14B and on github soon.
