The external_input example has been as well adapted and (at least
temporarily) simplifiedi/modified to remove the dependencies on
`atomic_wait` and `mio`.
TODO: return the list of models involved in a deadlock.
Note that Many execution errors are not implemented at all at the
moment and will need separate PRs, namely:
- Terminated
- ModelError
- Panic
The `schedule_*event_in` and `schedule_*event_at` pairs of methods are
each merged into a single overloaded method accepting either a relative
`Duration`or an absolute `MonotonicTime`.
This is a pretty large patch that impacts the API.
Until now, it was not possible to cancel events that were scheduled for
the current simulation time slice, making it necessary for the user to
use complex workarounds (see former version of the espresso machine
example).
The new implementation makes this possible but the generation of a key
associated to an event has now a non-negligible cost (basicaly it
creates three references to an Arc). For this reason, the API now
defaults to NOT creating a key, and new methods were added for
situations when the event may need to be cancelled and a key is
necessary.
See the much simplified implementation of the espresso machine example
for a motivating case.
