[scilab-Users] XCos Event Handling

[Andreas Stewering-Bone]

Hello David,

I know this flags,

it is more complex.

It would be very nice to have a postinit Flag to work on  configuration data 
(init the fieldbus based on the data),   which is fetched during init, before 
going into cyclic mode for IO-calculation. 

My target is realtime code generation, so doing initialisation stuff during 
cyclic mode is not very nice.

If you have a complex distributed IO Structure, the possible flags init, inout 
and end do not fit the needs.

Greatings

Andreas
