call triggers in submachine states

[mircoR]

Hi,

I want to model hierarchical statemachines with call triggers that reference operations of the containing class. The statemachines will be exported to XMI and analysed by another tool.

According to the EA help, triggers can be defined either with the property dialog of transitions or with the state-trigger table. The definition of triggers works fine for all statecharts, i. e. for the ones directly contained by the class and for the ones contained in submachine states, but for the latter ones, operations of the class can't be assigned to call triggers.

I've tried to define triggers in a root statechart and select it in the statechart of a submachine state. But they won't show up in the XMI export as expected. The problem has not been solved in the new 7.5 Beta either.

So, has anyone found a way to model complete hierarchical statemachines using call triggers?

Thanks in advance
Mirco
