transformation or code generation

[revdev]

I'm evaluating EA and am wondering how to generate code from state machines.  I don't really see what the transformation step is doing, but it's not generating code.  What I eventually want is a state transition table and an action for each state.

Thanks,
Bruce

You can't generate code from a state machine. If you want to do so, you have to write an add-in. Code gen. is controlled by the contents of the according class (methods Initial Code section, attributes, tags, etc.)

It's possible to write a transformation to get state machine information into methods etc. but it's something that you'll need to write yourself.  Possibly with the help of an addin and the EXEC_ADD_IN function macro.  (Search the forum for examples of that if you need them)
