 | StaMa Namespace |
Contains all classes, interfaces and delegate types to implement state machines.
See class StateMachineTemplate to create the structure of a state machine.
Use method CreateStateMachine or CreateStateMachine(Object) to create StateMachine instances.
Send events to a state machine to trigger transitions through method SendTriggerEvent(Object) or SendTriggerEvent(Object, EventArgs).
Classes| Class | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | Region |
Represents a container for states and defines the initial State for the contained states.
|
| RegionCollection |
Represents a list of Region instances.
|
| State |
Represents a state with entry and exit actions. Hierarchical sub-states are aggregated through the Regions collection.
|
| StateCollection |
Represents a list of State instances.
|
| StateConfiguration |
Specifies a state configuration in a structured way.
|
| StateMachine |
Contains the active state of a state machine. Receives the trigger events and
executes the actions according to the state machine structure defined by the StateMachineTemplate from which the StateMachine instance is created.
|
| StateMachineException |
The exception that is thrown during creation of the state machine template when creation rules are violated.
|
| StateMachineTemplate |
Contains the structure and behaviour definition of a state machine.
|
| Transition |
Represents a transition with source state, target state and information when the transition shall be executed.
|
| TransitionCollection |
Represents a list of Transition instances.
|
Interfaces| Interface | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | IStateConfigurationVisitor |
Defines a set of methods which allow for composing a human readable representation of a StateConfiguration.
|
| IStateMachineTemplateVisitor |
Defines the visitor interface to be used for passing through the
regions, states and transitions of a StateMachineTemplate.
|
Delegates| Delegate | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | SignatureGenerator |
Represents a method that calculates a hash value for a String.
|
| StateMachineTraceDispatchTriggerEventEventHandler |
Represents a method that will be called whenever the event queue dispatches an event to the state machine.
|
| StateMachineTraceStateChangeEventHandler |
Represents a method that will be called for tracing state changes in the StateMachine.
|
| StateMachineTraceTestTransitionEventHandler |
Represents a method that will be called for tracing which transitions are
considered by the state machine as active during a SendTriggerEvent(Object) or SendTriggerEvent(Object, EventArgs) call.
|
| StateMachineActionCallback |
Represents a method that will be called when a State entry, exit or Transition action shall be executed.
|
| StateMachineDoActionCallback |
Represents a method that will be called when a State do action shall be executed.
|
| StateMachineGuardCallback |
Represents a method that will be called when a Transition guard shall be executed.
|
Enumerations| Enumeration | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | StateMachineOptions |
Defines optional behavior or functionality for the state machines.
