Detailed description
This disables the software watchdog timer (SWWDT) for long operations, preventing the 'An operation is taking a long time to complete' message from popping up if an algorithm takes a long time.
Note this call will only take effect inside an event, and the results will only be applicable for the duration of that event. This means a component can not permanently disable the watchdog.
Nevertheless, for clean usage a flowchart should always re-enable the SWWDT with Enable set to true for every disable call made. This call may be nested and a disable count is maintained.
