A State Diagram is commonly used to track the objects' states and store operational data:
For example, State Diagrams track the following user states:
- new
- active
- non-active
State Diagram's capabilities:
- accounting of object states
- storing data about objects in nodes
- retrieving data on objects using the CONV function
- no restrictions on the number of times it is applied in a process.
State Diagrams like processes work with data in tasks. To view tasks used in a State Diagram, go to the View mode and select the node, in which you want to view tasks:
State Diagram allows using a limited set of nodes:
| Node type | Description |
|---|---|
| Delay | Is used to delay the task in the node for the specified time. Time interval (delay) is specified in the Limit the time of the task in the node field |
| Condition | It is responsible for processing task data using conditional operators “if …, then …” |
| Set state | Allows you to track objects' states and store operational data |
| Code | If you find the available node types limited, you can use a Code node to write a custom code than will be applied to a task in a State Diagram |
| Copy task | Allows copying a task from one process to another with no interruptions while the original process is still running |
| Modify task | Allows you to modify a task in another process by reference |
| Set Parameter | Allows you to add new and modify existing parameters in tasks. It also allows you to apply various functions to the parameters |
| Queue | Allows you to store data in a node |
Creation and debugging of a State Diagram is the same as a Process creation and debugging.
