[erlang-questions] Atomically replace named process?

[Tobias Schlager]

Hi,

I know this not exactly what you're asking for, but you could use a (registered) process group as a middleman and add you gen_server's into that as needed.

Regards
Tobias

Betreff: [erlang-questions] Atomically replace named process?

I've got a gen_server with a particular name. I've got a bunch of
other processes calling and casting to it, by name.

Can I spin up another gen_server, and have the name transferred
without anyone noticing? That is: can I redirect the calls and casts
to the new process without interruption?
