I cannot get triggers with parameters to simulate correctly.

[mse]

I keep getting the following error in the state chart simulation window:

TypeError: sim.s1 is undefined

I have a signal defined with the same name, and the transition in the state chart looks like this:

s1[this.s1.value == 1]

Why is it undefined? I tried moving the trigger and signal around in the model but that doesn't help (I thought it was a scope issue).

[mse]

I followed these directions and it still does not work, for some reason the trigger is not found even though it is clearly defined.

• I have a signal named s10 with an attribute named val of type int.
• I have a trigger named trg
• In the transition guard I have: this.s10.val==1;

The error is:

Code: [Select]

[111303920]      TypeError: sim.trg is undefined
[111303922]      TypeError: sim.s10 is undefined

Have you found a solution for this?

I revisited this problem and was able to get it running, but with a limitation.

Scope seems to matter when defining the signals and triggers. This do not work when there is a package at the top of the hierarchy containing signals. The signal has to be defined at a level equal or below the class containing the statechart. The trigger then refers to the signal.

When creating a transition you have to use the prefix "sim" to refer to the signal in a guard for example like this:

sim.s10==1

Finally, the trigger and the signal have to have the same name.
