Can a shared variable be forced like an IO variable?

Forcing an IO variable is supported.  However, what if I want to force the value of a shared variable?

You cannot just force the value of the shared variable if it's being constantly updated from somewhere else. What you can do is to create an application that updates the shared variable with a value constantly. That way, you can get close to the behavior of forcing the value on the variable. Doesn't help answer the question, but could be used as a way around it.

Yep, that is what I thought.  Just wanted to put the idea out there and see if any other developers had thought about this.  I will need to write my own API to do this.
