ALLOW_SIMULATE

This macro will add a function to the list of functions, for which function calls are allowed and always considered valid. Whenever the function is called a fixed value are returned to the unit.

Syntax:
ALLOW_SIMULATE(function, retval)
Parameters:
function
A function used by the unit. The function can have any prototype.
retval
The value that will be returned to the unit whenever function is called
Returns:
-

All function calls to function are considered valid and will return retval for the duration of the test. ALLOW_SIMULATE can be used together with EXPECT, EXPECT_VALIDATE or SIMULATE. If these are used with same function in the same test (or in a test executed from the test), the validation of function calls setup with these functionswill take precedence until all of the expected function calls has been validated. The macro is valid for the duration of the test. If the test calls other tests, the macro will remain in scope also for these tests. ALLOW_SIMULATE on function will override any earlier allow macros on that function.
