state_machine_nesting.py

Go to the documentation of this file.

#!/usr/bin/env python
"""
Description:
    Create one state machine, put a state in it that sets something in the
    userdata key 'x'. Put another state machine inside of that state machine,
    tell it to fetch the userdata key 'x'. Put a state that reads 'x' into
    that nested state machine, and spew some info to rosout.

Usage:
    $> ./state_machine_nesting.py

Output:
    [INFO] : State machine starting in initial state 'SET' with userdata: 
        []
    [INFO] : State machine transitioning 'SET':'set_it'-->'NESTED'
    [INFO] : State machine starting in initial state 'GET' with userdata: 
        ['x']
    [INFO] : >>> GOT DATA! x = hello
    [INFO] : State machine terminating 'GET':'got_it':'done'
    [INFO] : State machine terminating 'NESTED':'done':'succeeded'
