Re: [Gems-users] Regd using externally declared enumerations in the slicc files

[Brinda Ganesh <brinda_ganesh@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Mike. I used the enumeration that i declared in
the slicc file in my external module as you suggested
and included the generated .h file in my module :-).

On another note - is there any way for me to regularly
schedule a call to my external module every cycle from
the ruby main event scheduler. 

Thanks
Brinda
