Detailed Description

This thread is the simulated real-time periodic thread in the Orocos system.

All your activities in the same program must be a SimulationActivity for this to work, since the os::TimeService global time is updated when this thread runs.

By default, the update period is 0.001 seconds. If you want to run with a finer or coarser grained time step, use the Instance() method and supply another period before SimulationActivities are created.

Note: This implementation has lost the capability to run SimulationActivity objects of different periods.

Parameters

sched_type

An OS-specific value which selects a scheduler. Orocos requires that these two values are available:

ORO_SCHED_RT: Hint the OS that this thread should be scheduled as a priority or real-time process.
ORO_SCHED_OTHER: Hint the OS that this thread should not be scheduled as a priority or real-time process.

Your OS can in addition provide other sched_type's which map more naturally to the schedulers present. If your OS does not make a distinction between real-time and other, both values may map to the same scheduler type.
