Erlang 无法获取不透明类型以导致透析器中的抽象冲突

以下是定义不透明类型的模块：

-module(a).
-export([people/0, get_names/1]).
-export_type([person/0]).

-opaque person()      :: {person, first_name()}.
-type first_name()    :: string().

-spec people() -> People when
      People :: [person()].

people() ->
    [{person, "Joe"}, {person, "Cindy"}].

-spec get_names(People) -> Names when
      People     :: [person()],
      Names      :: [string()].

get_names(Ps) ->
    get_names(Ps, []).

get_names([ {person, Name} | Ps ], Names) ->
    get_names(Ps, [Name|Names]);
get_names([], Names) ->
    lists:reverse(Names).

这是一个模块，它在一个人类型中四处乱跑：

-module(b).
-export([do/0]).

-spec do() -> Name when
      Name :: string().

do() ->
    [{person, Name} | _People] = a:people(),
    Name.

和透析器：

~/erlang_programs$ dialyzer b.erl 
  Checking whether the PLT /Users/7stud/.dialyzer_plt is up-to-date... yes
  Proceeding with analysis...
Unknown functions:
  a:people/0
 done in 0m0.49s
done (passed successfully)

我以为透析器会抱怨。

这是有效的：

 $ dialyzer a.erl b.erl

 Checking whether the PLT /Users/7stud/.dialyzer_plt is up-to-date... yes
  Proceeding with analysis...
b.erl:7: Function do/0 has no local return
b.erl:8: The attempt to match a term of type a:person() against the pattern  
 {'person', Name} breaks the opaqueness of the term
 done in 0m0.52s
done (warnings were emitted)

透析器使用.plt类型的查找表。警告未知功能：a:people/0表示，在检查b时透析器不知道模块a。您通过指定必须在CLI上检查的所有模块来解决此问题。您还可以从模块中构建.plt。基本上，您将构建一个initial.plt，然后向其中添加一个。那么你可以在检查b时使用这个.plt。
