public interface State
extends Namespace, RedefinableElement, Vertex

A representation of the model object 'State'. A state models a situation during which some (usually implicit) invariant condition holds. The states of protocol state machines are exposed to the users of their context classifiers. A protocol state represents an exposed stable situation of its context classifier: when an instance of the classifier is not processing any operation, users of this instance can always know its state configuration.

The following features are supported:

• Is Composite
• Is Orthogonal
• Is Simple
• Is Submachine State
• Submachine
• Connection
• Connection Point
• Redefined State
• State Invariant
• Entry
• Exit
• Do Activity
• Deferrable Trigger
• Region

redefinitionContext

Classifier redefinitionContext()

The redefinition context of a state is the nearest containing statemachine. result = let sm = containingStateMachine() in if sm.context->isEmpty() or sm.general->notEmpty() then sm else sm.context endif

isRedefinitionContextValid

boolean isRedefinitionContextValid(State redefined)

This operation redefines the following operations:

• 'Is Redefinition Context Valid'

The query isRedefinitionContextValid() specifies whether the redefinition contexts of a state are properly related to the redefinition contexts of the specified state to allow this element to redefine the other. The containing region of a redefining state must redefine the containing region of the redefined state. result = true
