A simple OTP application to test out some of OTP's features
The s_server module is a gen_server which will respond with pong when it receives a ping

To run the application, start erlang shell with:
erl -pa ebin

and in the shell enter
1> application:start(s_server).
ok
2> s_server:ping().
pong

You can enter the shell command regs(). to get a list of all registered processes which will include s_server and s_server_sup


%% Running tests
To test the s_server use rebar from the command line
./rebar eunit


%% Analyse using dialyzer
export ERL_TOP=~/Packages/otp
% Create persistent lookup table from the relevant OTP applications
dialyzer --build_plt -r . $ERL_TOP/lib/stdlib/ebin $ERL_TOP/lib/kernel/ebin $ERL_TOP/lib/eunit/ebin

% create PLT from my own code and output it to s_server.plt
dialyzer --add_to_plt -r . --output_plt s_server.plt

# do the analysis
dialyzer --plt s_server.plt -r .
