Ah, multiple targets are not supported. Just realized that in the last couple of posts we've now gone through the list in the Commons SCXML STATUS file [1] (see Item 5). I should update that file to remove SYNCH and add INVOKE (I will do that now, and summarize our discussion here in a line or two). This list and summary will make it into the README for the first release (whenever that happens). Multiple targets are not supported because: 1) If you look at the legal usages, if one uses multiple targets, each needs to be a child state of a region of the same parallel. The same can be achieved by adding "action states" as initials for each region, and transitioning to the (single) state holding the parallel. 2) Given time constraints and some fluidity (since its a WD), we have the core engine that lets us do everything, but no embellishments. That also doesn't mean they won't be supported in the future, if we have folks (me included) willing to look into this down the road (and in fact, if these embellishments outlive the WD status). -Rahul [1] http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/commons/proper/scxml/trunk/STATUS.html > +Fasih > <snip/> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
