James Squire asks

"Eh????  What do you mean by immediate abort and what do you mean by
"having" it?

I'm confused."


Simple enough, an immediate abort is one that happens when the abort
happens. A non-immediate abort waits for a while, as long as, but
not longer than, the time till the next abort completion point is
reached.

If you want an immediate abort, be sure your compiler implements
the real time annex, or at least this part of it
