nickva opened a new pull request #883: Fix erlang time module compatibility URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/pull/883 `now/0` is deprecated since Erlang 18.0, and a set of new time related functions are available. Usually `now/0` can be replaced with `os:timestamp/0`, however in some instances it was used effectively to produce monotonically incrementing values rather than timestamps. So a new `couch_time_compat` module was created to emulate 18.0+ `unique_integer/0,1` functionality, and code was upgraded to use it. Most functional changes are in couch_uuid module. There `now/0` was used both as a timestamp and for uniqueness. To emulate previous behavior, a local incrementing clock sequence is used. If `os:timestamp/0` does not advance since last call then the local clock is advanced by 1 microsecond and that's used to generate the next V1 UUIDs. As soon as os:timestamp/0` catches up, the local sequence reset to that latest value. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
