sim.setStepping

Enables or disables the stepping operation mode for a threaded script. If enabled, then the current script has to trigger each simulation step explicitly, via sim.step. Is applied cumulatively, i.e. if the stepping operation mode is enabled n times, it needs to be disabled n times to return to the initial state

(Lua specific: in stepping operation mode, automatic thread interruptions, i.e. preemptive threading, is supressed)

Synopsis

int prevStepLevel = sim.setStepping(bool enable) int prevStepLevel = sim.setStepping(bool enable / int desiredStepLevel)

Arguments

  • enable / desiredStepLevel: enable state, or the desired level of thread interruption

Return values

  • prevStepLevel: previous level of thread interruption. When 0, thread interruption was not enabled previously
