SMC - The State Machine Compiler v. 4.2.0

Requires:  Java 1.4.1 SE (Standard Edition) or better.
Download:  http://sourceforge.net/projects/smc
Home Page: http://smc.sourceforge.net

=================================================================
What's New?
=================================================================

+ Added C, Perl and Ruby language generation.

+ Added method valueOf(int stateId) to Java, C# and VB.Net to
 allow developers to hand-serialize and deserialize state
 machines.

=================================================================
Bug fixes
=================================================================

+ (C#) Removed extraneous "bool loopbackFlag = false" line
 from Default state transitions.

+ (C#) Added "Trace.Listeners.Add(myWriter)" line when generating
 debug code. By not having this line it prevented debug output
 from being outuput.

+ Corrected parser abend when a transition was missing an
 endstate.

=================================================================
What is SMC?
=================================================================

SMC takes a state machine description (stored in a .sm file) and
generates State pattern classes in a target language (C++, Java,
Tcl, VB.Net, C# and Python are currently supported). SMC is a
console-based app written in Java which means SMC can run
anywhere Java (1.4.1 or better) can run. The download package
includes an example directory showing how SMC can used with C++,
Java, Tcl (requires [incr Tcl] package), VB.Net, C# and Python.
The examples range from trivial to GUI apps.
