Source Code Generation

Step 2 of 7: Add a sub state machine diagram

Move the mouse cursor over the controller class, move to the resource icon at the bottom right, click on it and add a state machine diagram as sub-diagram of the controller class.

Step 3 of 7: Complete the state machine diagram

Model the state machine with state machine diagram. Both the states and transitions should be modeled accurately.

Step 4 of 7: Pick up operations for transitions

Open the transitions' specifications, and select the corresponding operations. Those operations are offered by the controller class.

Step 5 of 7: To generate state machine code

Select Tools > State Machine Code > Generate Code... from the main menu to generate state machine code.

Step 6 of 7: Specify output path

Specify the folder for storing the code to be generated, configure other options if needed. Click OK when ready.

Step 7 of 7: Using the generated code

The generated state machine code can be compiled and executed. You may run the sample application generated alongside to examine the effect of state transition. As a side note, you may also model an application with class diagram, generate code with Instant Generator, implement the generated code by calling the state machine code generated.
