Detailed Description

Description: The Exercise Clock keeps track of current simulated time.

When 'ticked', it advances simulation time based on elapsed real time since the last time it was ticked and a time-multiplier that allows the exercise clock to run faster or slower than real-time. The exercise clock also supports a pause/resume capability.

virtual

Tell tick() not to advance simulation time.

virtual void DtExerciseClock::resume ( )

virtual

Tells tick() to resume advancing simluation time.

bool DtExerciseClock::isPaused ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Returns true if system is paused, false otherwise.

References myPaused.
