I'd like to understand better how your approach works, therefore the
following questions:
- Given I'd implement a very simple statemachine (e.g. the stop watch
implemented in the example of my proposal, see comment in FSM.cpp), where
would I put the needed data (elapsedTime_ and startTime_)?
- Is it possible to "scope" the data appropriately?

Thanks,

Andreas
