EEP-55's Backwards Compatibility #19

Closed paulo-ferraz-oliveira closed 3 years ago

paulo-ferraz-oliveira commented 3 years ago

This is more of a question/request for guidance that an issue.

EEP-55's Backwards Compatibility seems to refer to using old code on an Erlang/OTP version that already supports the pinning operator (e.g. OTP 24, 25, ...).

I'm wondering how we'd be able to use new code that uses it in older Erlang/OTP-supported software (e.g. OTP 19, 20, ...). Would a parse transform of any kind be possible, here?

Thanks.

Hello!

This is a question better asked of the EEP author, so take this to the mailing list or the PR associated with the EEP.
