SV: SV: Killing Supervisor

[Lennart Öhman]

Hi,
 
But still the higher level supervisor will see this as that the
child-supervisor you just terminated has terminated due to a fault.
It will try to restart it according to the type (temporary, transient
or permenant) and restart intensity.
 
If one wants to get rid of children, the supervisor API
supervisor:terminate_child/2 should be used.

Best regards,
Lennart

  Calling exit(SupervisorPid, shutdown) in the supervisor's parent
process would do the trick.
