 ===== Concurrent Writing of Trace Data =====
-The example above shows how a trace buffer can be written to a file. This has to be done only after the executor stopped, because the writing usually takes a long time. If you wish to write a trace buffer to a file for further analysis while the application still runs, you can use a ''TraceWriter''. This will do the writing in a separate thread and hence does not block the safety system or control system, see ''examples/controlSystem/traceTest''. Every 30 seconds the trace buffer gets written to a file.
