No. When functions are called from a formula input pin they execute
atomically, as well as any functions they call (and so on). It works the
same way for event handlers. You can't but a breakpoint in atomically
executed entities.

I should also mention that has some fairly heavy duty consequences for
so-called "multithreaded" execution. VEE doesn't time slice any atomically
executed entity (that's why the breakpoint doesn't work), effectively
stopping any other thread. IE, an infinite loop called from a formula input
pin stops everything except that one thread. That appears to be quite a
common "problem".

Hi,
Has anyone worked with the HP4156 panel driver. It reports errors if I
try to change the mode of SMU4 to COMMON in the Sampling mode and
reports instrument driver error 1062: No CASE was matched in a select
statement in device HP4156A, component SMU4_MODE line 8432. Is this a
bug in the panel driver code?
Are the panel driver codes reliable or can we expect them to have bugs.
If this is a bug, can I get a correct version of the panel driver for
HP4156?

Thanks
Arunanshu

Subject: [vrf] timing conversions<o:p></o:p></div><o:p> </o:p>Thank you all forgreat feedback.
My next question is if I wanted to find elapsed time between two
different times, is there a function in Vee that computes that
automatically?

thanks.
