StateGen

This application may be used to generate a full-featured software state machine using a high-level description language. Several state machines can be placed into the same source file and they can reference one-another to create nested state machines. Any arbitrary code can be associated with any state transition. Inline code is supported. Any code may also be defined to be run before the start state is entered as well as after the end state is finished.

Uses for this software include creating scanners and filters as well as user interfaces. Any time a complex integer based state machine is appropriate, this generator will help the developer create the states in a clear and organized fashion with lots of supporting documentation.
