system() function is executed before other instructions.

LoVyacheslavvVEMs over 1 year ago

Hello!

While writing code on SKILL, I found one roblem. Here is its representation in a simplified example:

procedure( test()

println(1)

println(2)

println(3)

println(4)

println(5)

system("sleep 4")

);procedure test

As a result of executing this code, I get 4 seconds of waiting for the execution of the system("sleep 4") command, and after that the results of the execution of println and system commands:

What could be the reason for this behavior of SKILL and how can I make println() run first?

Advance thanks!

Call hiFlushCIW() or hiFlushInfo() before the system() call. It's not that the other functions are executed after the system() call - it's that the output is buffered and doesn't get flushed when the UI is blocked by the system() call.
