The method is launched by the application thread currently
in focus.
Procedure
- If needed, set the focus to be the thread
that runs the operation.
- Send the command to the animator. If several
commands are sent to the same thread, the application will execute
them one after the other in the calling order. In addition, you can
switch focus threads and send start requests to different threads
to simulate concurrent calls.
- Continue execution of the application (by
one of the "go" commands).
- The operation is displayed in the call stack
of the thread and relevant sequence diagrams, and is carried out.
- Once the operation returns, its return value
is displayed in the output window (animation) or in the console (tracing).
Results
Note: The operation call is
synchronous where
the thread executes the operation, then returns to its last previous
position in the interrupted control flow.
