Echo Jobs is a handy debugging toggle provided by Trick. When turned on, Echo Jobs will print the current simulation time and the name of the current job being executed. Echo Jobs is a convenient way to see the order of job execution and narrow down when and where something occurs during a simulation run.

All jobs (user jobs and Trick jobs) of the following job class will be echoed:

  • initialization
  • integration
  • scheduled
  • end_of_frame
  • shutdown

Echo Jobs uses Trick's messaging system to publish each sim time / job name message, which means it will be sent to any enabled message subscribers (see @ref StatusMessageSystem "Status Message System").
