Class SMVirtualEvent

java.lang.Object
  sm.SMVirtualEvent

public class SMVirtualEvent

extends java.lang.Object

A virtual event to send to a state machine.

For instance, to send a virtual event "copy" to a state machine sm:

 //Build a virtual event
 SMVirtualEvent copyEvent =  new SMVirtualEvent("copy");
 //Send it to sm
 sm.processEvent(copyEvent);
 

The virtual event can thus be used to fire a transition in sm:

 StateMachine sm = new StateMachine("sm virtual events") {
 		public State s = new State () {
 			Transition t = new Transition("copy") { ... };
 			...
 		};
 		...
 };
