Methods
findTransitionNode
-
try to find the valid transition between fromState Node to toState Node
Parameters
-
fromStateNode: UAState
-
toStateNode: UAState
-
Optional predicate: TransitionSelector
Returns UATransitionEx

getCurrentState
-
return the current state as string

return the state Node by Name
Parameters
-
name: string
Returns UAState

getStates
-
return all state nodes associated with this state machine
Returns UAState[]
getTransitions
-
return all state to state transition node associated with this state machine
Returns UATransitionEx[]
isValidTransition
-
returns true if there is a valid transition from currentStateNode to toStateNode
Parameters

toStateNode: string | UAState
-
Optional predicate: TransitionSelector
Returns boolean
-
setState
-
change the current state
note:
- a transition from currentState to toState node must exists

StateMachineType
The StateMachineType is the base ObjectType for all StateMachineTypes. It defines a single Variable which represents the current state of the machine. An instance of this ObjectType shall generate an Event whenever a significant state change occurs. The Server decides which state changes are significant. Servers shall use the GeneratesEvent ReferenceType to indicate which Event(s) could be produced by the StateMachine.
Subtypes may add Methods which affect the state of the machine. The Executable Attribute is used to indicate whether the Method is valid given the current state of the machine. The generation of AuditEvents for Methods is defined in Part 4. A StateMachine may not be active.
In this case, the CurrentState and LastTransition Variables shall have a status equal to BadStateNotActive (see Table B.17).
Subtypes may add components which are instances of StateMachineTypes. These components are considered to be sub-states of the StateMachine. SubStateMachines are only active when the parent machine is in an appropriate state. Events produced by SubStateMachines may be suppressed by the parent machine. In some cases, the parent machine will produce a single Event that reflects changes in multiple SubStateMachines
