v3 commands and time-request #1730

@phlptp, I've been thinking about the federate commands we're adding for v3 and how I might use them. As I mentioned in our recent discussion, they seem like a good way of sending simulation control signals to do things like change the operating mode of a federate as we move into a new portion of the simulation or advance the time of a simulation to the next point of interest. You mentioned that these command signals are asynchronous with respect to the simulation time. That is, a federate can receive them and process them any time it wants, not just when it has been granted time. Since the traditional time request is a blocking call, though, it seems like IF a federate wants to process these commands outside the time it is granted it would have to adjust its HELICS integration and use the async time request ( |
