How does an application recognize the death of the postmaster - Mailing list pgsql-general

How do folks handle the death of the postmaster in their applications?
Assuming the postmaster dies after an application has connected to the
database, but before it makes a request.  What should I look for?
Currently our application that's in development does not handle the
situation well.  What we want to do is gracefully (as possible) shutdown
the application.
