Module summary

Dump support for registries in erl_interface.

Description

This module is usually part of the erl_interface application, but is currently part of the Mnesia application.

This module is mainly intended for internal use within OTP, but it has two functions that are exported for public use.

On C-nodes, erl_interface has support for registry tables. These tables reside in RAM on the C-node, but can also be dumped into Mnesia tables. By default, the dumping of registry tables through erl_interface causes a corresponding Mnesia table to be created with mnesia_registry:create_table/1, if necessary.

Tables that are created with these functions can be administered as all other Mnesia tables. They can be included in backu
