[erlang-questions] OTP question

[Alpár Jüttner]

Hi,

I have a fairly basic problem, probably I did a silly mistake. When I
stop an application, it does not terminate the supervisor tree. Please
find an example in the attachment. It is a minimal application with one
supervisor and a server. When I start the application, the supervisor
and the server starts nicely:

        $erl
        Erlang (BEAM) emulator version 5.6.3 [source] [smp:2]
        [async-threads:0] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false]
        
        Eshell V5.6.3  (abort with ^G)
        1> c(test_ser).
        {ok,test_ser}
        2> c(test_sup).
        {ok,test_sup}
        3> c(test_app).
        {ok,test_app}
        4> application:start(test_app).
        TEST APP START.
        TEST SUPERVISOR START LINK.
        TEST SUPERVISOR INIT.
        TEST SERVER START LINK.
        TEST SERVER INIT.
        ok
        
But when I stop it, test_app:stop/1 is executed, but
test_sup:terminate/1 and test_server:terminate/2 are not.

        5> application:stop(test_app). 
        TEST APP STOP.
        
        =INFO REPORT==== 17-Aug-2008::22:27:49 ===
            application: test_app
            exited: stopped
            type: temporary
        ok
        6> 
        
What do I do wrong?

Best regards,
Alpar
