Hi, This is my first usage of super states, as phases in a process. here's an extact: <start-state name="start"> | <transition to="buildPhase"/> | </start-state> | | <super-state name="buildPhase"> | | <event type="superstate-enter"> | <action class="com..." /> | </event> | | ... | | <state name="waitForValidation"> | <transition to="../deliveryPhase"/> | </state> | | <event type="superstate-leave"> | <action class="com..." /> | </event> The super state leave event is fired, but enter is not. Looking at the code this seems 'normal' : - Transition.take: if ( destination.getSuperState()!=null ) { | ... fire the event ... - SuperState.execute : Node startNode = (Node) nodes.get(0); | startNode.enter(executionContext); Going from a node to a super-state taking an explicit transition wont cause the event to be fired as dest.getSuperState == null. Then the super state will be executed and the first node will be entered without any kind of 'transient' transition being taken. What do you guys think about that ? AFAIAC I would expect the super-enter event being fired whatever the enter context (thru an innder node, or referencing the super-state itself). Thanks for your input.
