Dear members of the Design/CPN - Mailinglist! I am working on my master thesis with Design/CPN 3.01. The background of the thesis is a simulation of the PROFIBUS system. To present some results to the user outside Design/CPN, while the petri net of the bus simulation is still running, i need to trigger an external process. This process then reads some data from a file and updates a Tcl/Tk - application. How can i manage this trigger effect? Busy waiting can not be used due to the slow machine, i am currently working on. The simulator eats up all the processor time. Has anyone solved a similar problem? Thanks in advance, Marc Seefeldt --- [[ Post messages and summary of replies: designCPN@daimi.aau.dk ]] [[ To (un)subscribe, send "help" to: Majordomo@daimi.aau.dk ]] [[ The moderator's address: designCPN-owner@daimi.aau.dk ]] [[ World Wide Web URL: http://www.daimi.aau.dk/designCPN/email/ ]]
