Completion Transition

Definition

A completion transition occurs whenever the source state is said to be complete. What determines the completion of a state depends on whether it's simple or composite.

From a Simple State

A simple state is considered complete right after its entry action is executed.

In the example below, right after a transition to S completes, the state machine transitions from S to T.

From a Composite State

A composite state is considered complete right after all its regions enter their final state.

In the example below, whenever every region of S enters its final state, the state machine transitions from S to T.

How to Define a Completion Transition with Maki

Pass maki::null in lieu of an event type:

(S, T, maki::null)

The final state is represented by maki::final in transition tables:

(X0, maki::final, maki::event<some_event>)
