Use of Thread.ExternallySuspended within Code Modules to Enable Debugging Multiple Threads
PrintThis example shows how to use the Thread.ExternallySuspended property provided by the TestStand API. You need to use this property in code modules that perform a lengthy operation or wait an indeterminate period of time. Otherwise, the user will not be able to suspend (break) execution in TestStand until after the code module finishes executing.
For more information about this property, refer to the TestStand API Reference Help section on this property. You can also refer to the related links below for information on different cases where it is necessary to use the Thread.ExternallySuspended property.
To run the example, simply run the MainSequence in the Sequence File inside the zip file.
