如果是测试代码是下面这样,得到的结果会是怎样?猜!

s2()->
L=[1,2,3,4,5,6],
L2=[L,L,L,L],
erlang:display( {{erts_debug:size(L),erts_debug:flat_size(L)},{erts_debug:size(L2),erts_debug:flat_size(L2)}}
).
|
结果是
1
2
3
|
5> d:s2().
{{12,12},{56,56}}
|
这个结果出来之后,我足足用了5分钟用来怀疑人生,为什么和期望的结果不一样呢?是因为我现在用的最新版本(17.2)吗?是实现已经修改掉但是没有更新文档吗?出于好奇,我还是按照之前探索问题的套路,生成了一下to_core文件,真相大白:

换句话,在编译阶段s2方法里面的常量数据就已经展开了,所以L2无论是size还是flat_size都是一样的.之所以要先把这个测试做了,就是避免后面的测试误入陷阱.
这个怎么破呢?除了上面传入参数的方法之外,还有一个路子:换成函数调用即可,如下:
1
2
3
4
5
|
s4()->
L=lists:seq(1,6),
L2=[L,L,L,L],
erlang:display( {{erts_debug:size(L),erts_debug:flat_size(L)},{erts_debug:size(L2),erts_debug:flat_size(L2)}}
).

好吧,勇于自黑,由于上面遇到这样让人恼火的问题,我决定在Shell中完成后续的测试,然后,我一脚踏进"新坑":

一开始启动shell的时候,Shell的Pid是<0.33.0>.然后我们在中间故意执行一个不存在的方法 fake:fake().这时查看一下,Shell已经重启,Pid变成<0.40.0>.注意再执行erts_debug:size(L2).结果已经变成了132了,换句话说,这里L2数据已经展开了.

那为什么会触发数据展开(expand ,flattening)呢? 看下面的代码,在Shell启动的时候,会把之前已经绑定的变量作为spawn_link参数以启动新的shell.

erl6.2\lib\stdlib-2.2\src
start_eval(Bs, RT, Ds) ->
Self = self(),
Eval = spawn_link(fun() -> evaluator(Self, Bs, RT, Ds) end),
put(evaluator, Eval),
Eval.
|
换句话说,Erlang中使用spawn创建进程,传入的参数(包括函数闭包),需要拷贝到新进程的heap,换句话说进程创建的时候需要考虑参数的大小.
OK,这个问题差不多了,休息.
