Erlang: supervisor(3), adding a child process

Question

Where can I find example on how to add dynamic child processes to an existing supervisor (simple_one_for_one restart strategy) ?

Answer 1

In Supervisor Behaviour section of the OTP Design Principles part of the Erlang docs there is an example of how to use simple_one_for_one and dynamic children. I recommend the whole Design Principles part as it provides much insight into how OTP works.
