Hi Anuj,

The policy will delete virtual machines along with the application. It invokes the Startable.STOP effector with no arguments on its target. The implementation of this effector for applications (extending `org.apache.brooklyn.core.entity.AbstractApplication`) is to stop all children. The implementation of the effector for entities extending `org.apache.brooklyn.entity.software.base.SoftwareProcess` first stops the entity's process and then releases the underlying location.

There is an example blueprint in my original email.

Subject: New policy for auto-stopping applications after a fixed period

Hi everyone,

Merged into Brooklyn yesterday was a useful policy that stops entities after a 
period has elapsed.

Example usage:

location: localhost
services:
- type: org.apache.brooklyn.entity.stock.BasicApplication
    brooklyn.policies:
*  - type: org.apache.brooklyn.policy.action.StopAfterDurationPolicy**
**    brooklyn.config:**
**      lifetime: 4h**
*  brooklyn.children:
    - type: org.apache.brooklyn.entity.software.base.EmptySoftwareProcess

The policy is configured to invoke the stop effector on the application after 
four hours have passed.

Hidden inside this is a new DurationSinceSensor, which records the duration 
since it was added to an entity.

You may find this useful if you run multi-user environments in which people 
forget to release their resources.

Sam
