Detailed Description

A SimulationActivity is a PeriodicActivity which is used for simulation.

They all run in the same thread at the same period, which updates the the system clock such that the SimulationActivity appears to run in realtime, while it runs 'as fast as possible'.

Note:
The period is fixed by the SimulationThread, which runs all SimulationActivities at the same period.

Construct a SimulationActivity with a periodicity period Seconds

Note:
period is ignored.

Construct a SimulationActivity with a periodicity of s seconds and ns nanoseconds

Note:
s and ns are ignored.

Member Function Documentation

When a SimulationActivity is started, it may be executed by the user as well.

bool RTT::SimulationActivity::start ( void  ) [virtual]

A simulated activity can be started also if the SimulationThread is not running yet. This allows all tasks to be set ready in advance before the whole simulation is started.

Reimplemented from RTT::extras::PeriodicActivity.

Definition at line 76 of file SimulationActivity.cpp.

Returns a pointer to the thread which will run this activity. Will not be null.
