Note: This option is what you should select if you are using the
Interrupt to terminate a realization and skip to the end when a certain
condition occurs (e.g., a project completes).
In some cases, you may choose not to show a message when an Interrupt is triggered. As discussed below, this is useful, for example, if you are using the Interrupt to terminate a realization and skip to the end when a certain condition occurs (e.g., a project completes). In other cases, it may not be possible to display the message (e.g., when simulating scenarios, or when carrying out a distributed processing simulation, a sensitivity analysis, or an optimization).
You must specify how you want GoldSim to handle the Interrupt when the message is turned off or cannot be displayed. This is done via the Specify Action When Message is off or cannot be shown field at the bottom of the Interrupt property dialog.
The drop list contains five options:
•"Continue Simulation". This is the default. The simulation continues.
•"Skip remainder of current Realization and Continue". GoldSim skips to the end of the realization (i.e., it skips all further calculations for the realization, keeping the values of all elements constant at their last compute value), and continues on to the next realization.
Note: This option is what you should select if you are using the
Interrupt to terminate a realization and skip to the end when a certain
condition occurs (e.g., a project completes).
•"Skip remainder of current Realization and Abort". GoldSim skips to the end of the realization (i.e., it skips all further calculations for the realization, keeping the values of all elements constant at their last compute value), and then aborts (keeping results for all realizations up to that point, including the partially completed realization).
•"Discard current Realization and Abort". GoldSim discards the current (partially completed) realization, and then aborts (keeping results for all realizations up to that point, excluding the partially completed realization).
•"Abort and Return to Edit Mode". The simulation is aborted and the model is returned to Edit Mode.
Warning: When running
distributed processing, scenarios, sensitivity analysis or an optimization,
Interrupt messages are never displayed. Moreover, unless the Specify
Action When Message is off or cannot be shown field is set to "Continue" or
"Skip remainder of current Realization and Continue", the Interrupt will result
in a fatal error.
Note: Even if the
message is turned off (or cannot be displayed), you can still specify that the
message is to be added to the run log. Note, however, that a run log is not produced
for sensitivity analyses and optimizations.
