how to use supervisor:start_child?

[Dietmar Schaefer]

Hi !

I can't get this to work !



I have a supervisor:

init([]) ->

    case  whereis(sup) of
    undefined ->                    %% register only once
     register(sup, self());
    _ -> ok
    end,

with a few ChildSpec:
    AChild    = {xclock,{xclock,start_link,[]},
          permanent,2000,worker,[xclock]},

    StopChild = {stop_wrp,{stop_wrp,start_link,[]},
         permanent,2000,worker,[stop_wrp]},

    SimpleSup = {dynamic, {dynamic, start_link, []},
        transient, 2000, worker, [dynamic]},
   

    {ok,{{one_for_one,1,1}, [StopChild]}}.


I I try to start_child

supervisor:start_child(sup,[{dynamic, {dynamic, start_link, 
[]},transient, 2000, worker, [dynamic]}]).

I get

{error,{invalid_child_spec,[{dynamic,{dynamic,start_link,[]},
                                     transient,
                                     2000,
                                     worker,
                                     [dynamic]}]}}

How can this be?
( it should be valid because I can use it in the return value of 
supervisor:init)
ok,{{one_for_one,1,1}, [SimpeSup]}}.


Please give me a hint !
