schedule_suspensions(+Trigger)
Take the suspension list associated with the symbolic trigger
Trigger and schedule them for execution.
- Trigger
- An atom.
Description
Suspensions in ECLiPSe go through several stages: They are created,
attached to variables or symbolic triggers, later scheduled for execution,
and finally executed.
The task of schedule_suspensions/1 is to take suspensions from the
global suspension list associated to the symbolic name Trigger, and
schedule them for execution. The suspensions are inserted into a
global priority list, according to their individual priority. A
subsequent wake/0 will then actually execute them.
If no suspensions are associated to Trigger, schedule_suspensions/1
just succeeds and does nothing.
