All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Comparable

public class SimSystemEvent
extends SimEvent

System events are directly processed by the simulation engine. There are some special events that engine is able to understand. For instance, you can schedule the end of simulation using a system event.
SystemEvent e = new SystemEvent(Sim.EVENT_SIMULATION_END);
eventList.schedule(100, e); The above code make the engine stop at 100. When this event happens the simulationEnd() method of the current running models is called.
