2012-02-24Fix supervisor doc: Shutdown, MaxR and MaxT type specsRicardo Catalinas Jiménez
The next code snippets from supervisor.erl show that Shutdown from a child specification must be greater than zero and the same applies to MaxT. --- supervisor.erl ---------------------------------------------------------- validShutdown(Shutdown, _) when is_integer(Shutdown), Shutdown > 0 -> true; validShutdown(infinity, _) -> true; validShutdown(brutal_kill, _) -> true; validShutdown(Shutdown, _) -> throw({invalid_shutdown, Shutdown}). validIntensity(Max) when is_integer(Max), Max >= 0 -> true; validIntensity(What) -> throw({invalid_intensity, What}). validPeriod(Period) when is_integer(Period), Period > 0 -> true; validPeriod(What) -> throw({invalid_period, What}). -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

2011-10-10Allow an infinite timeout to shutdown worker processesChristopher Faulet
Now, in child specification, the shutdown value can also be set to infinity for worker children. This restriction was removed because this is not always possible to predict the shutdown time for a worker. This is highly application-dependent.
