LinkInterrupt

LinkInterrupt[link]

sends an interrupt to the program at the other end of the specified WSTP connection.

Details

  • link must be an active LinkObject, as returned by functions such as LinkLaunch or Links.
  • It is up to the external program to determine how it will handle the interrupt.
  • External programs created from WSTP templates will by default set the global variable WSAbort if they receive an abort.
