BUT. (big but) In practice I found simulation mode often pretty useless, as: Your database's SIOL links all pointing to one record may put your whole database into the same lock set. Which can change its behaviour dramatically. All records that work asynchronously with the real hardware are working synchronously in simulation mode. Which does change the behaviour of your database dramatically. Timing, values, completion delays - all different. The idea of simulation mode is really intriguing, but a good implementation .... is still waiting to be done. Cheers, ~Ralph |
