Hi Christophe, I have an addition question regarding the pseudo exit point. The following code adds a pseudo exit point to your CompositeTutorialWithEumlTable.cpp example: // Exit event struct exit_impl : msm::front::euml::euml_event<exit_impl>{}; exit_impl ev_exit; ... // Submachine struct _Playing : public msm::front::state_machine_def<_Playing > { ... // Pseudo exit state struct Exit_ : public msm::front::exit_pseudo_state<exit_impl> , public msm::front::euml::euml_state<Exit_> {}; static Exit_ Exit; ... BOOST_MSM_EUML_DECLARE_TRANSITION_TABLE(( Exit == Song1 + ev_exit ),transition_table ) }; I'm in doubt what should be stated in the main machine's transition table. The Stopped state is never reached when this line is used: Stopped == exit_pt_(Playing , _Playing::Exit) + ev_exit However, this entry works: Stopped == Playing + ev_exit Could you please clarify what should be actually entered. -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/msm-EUML-submachine-without-macro-tp35985...

I have an addition question regarding the pseudo exit point.

The following code adds a pseudo exit point to your CompositeTutorialWithEumlTable.cpp example:

// Exit event struct exit_impl : msm::front::euml::euml_event<exit_impl>{}; exit_impl ev_exit; ... // Submachine struct _Playing : public msm::front::state_machine_def<_Playing > { ... // Pseudo exit state struct Exit_ : public msm::front::exit_pseudo_state<exit_impl> , public msm::front::euml::euml_state<Exit_> {}; static Exit_ Exit; ... BOOST_MSM_EUML_DECLARE_TRANSITION_TABLE(( Exit == Song1 + ev_exit ),transition_table ) };

I'm in doubt what should be stated in the main machine's transition table. The Stopped state is never reached when this line is used:

Stopped == exit_pt_(Playing , _Playing::Exit) + ev_exit

However, this entry works:

Stopped == Playing + ev_exit

Could you please clarify what should be actually entered.

I'm unsure why it didn't work but I found a way around. You'll need to get the trunk version. Unfortunately this means a small breaking change in the definition of submachines to: typedef boost::msm::back::state_machine<Playing_> Playing_helper; struct Playing_impl : public Playing_helper, public msm::front::euml::euml_state<Playing_helper> {}; I hate breaking changes but this time I found no way around. I also updated the doc and the example. Please let me know if it now works as expected (it passes my test). Regards, Christophe
