State Checks

The following OOM model checks are made on states:

Check

Description and Correction

State name and code uniqueness

State names and codes must be unique in the classifier.

Manual correction: Modify the duplicate name/code

Automatic correction: Appends a number to the duplicate name/code

Input transition missing

Each state must have at least one input transition. A state without an input transition cannot be reached.

Manual correction: Add a transition linked to the state

Automatic correction: None

Composite state does not have any start

A composite state details the state behavior in a sub-statechart diagram. To be complete, this sub-statechart diagram requires a start.

Manual correction: Add a start in the sub-statechart diagram, or deselect the Composite check box in the state property sheet

Automatic correction: None

Incorrect action order

The entry trigger events must be the first in the list of actions on a state. The exit trigger events must the last in the list. All other actions can be ordered without any constraint.

Manual correction: Move all entry at the top of the list and all exit at the bottom

Automatic correction: Moves all entry at the top of the list and all exit at the bottom
