Application hooks for gen_X modules.

[Emacs the Viking]

Are there *standard* boss ways of implementing conventional gen_server and gen_fsm modules and having them initialised at startup time.

In other words, how do I manage non CB controllers as part of a larger application...is it easy or does it work the other way around in that I have to create an pplication of which the CB part is just part of a bigger project ?

Thanks,

Sean

You can have other applications included as part of your release.
These will get started in the normal way. I'd suggest 'relx' as the
sane way to handle releases.

Hi,

You can add and start extra modules in the priv/init/<appname>_01_news.erl script.

If you need to stop a module a specific way then you can provide a shutdown sequence as well.

Already figured it out thanks Kai!

I found the reference you made to Evans full post about how he changed it and why the files are _01 _02 etc. Makes sense and works just fine.

Thanks

Sean

I stashed it in Evernote, so in case anybody is wondering what I am on about:

    https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/chicagoboss/E15qLdY9b3A/discussion

It explains neatly and concisely about the priv/init folder and how to make use of it.
