User_prompt

 

Data Structure: User_prompt

Description

Input data structure defining changes to control during a simulation

Usage

User_prompt     NUM=ival   where ival  is the data structure number

 

Description

Overview

The User_prompt data structure can be used to change control data; e.g. output of data, termination, time, etc while the analysis is proceeding. The User_prompt data structure is defined in a file "user_prompt.dat" in the same directory as the project file. If the user_prompt.dat file is detected it is read and the control data for the simulation is modified by the user specified data. Once the user_prompt.dat file has been processed it is deleted by the simulation to prevent further processing of this data.
