Qt SCXML Traffic Light QML Example (Dynamic)▲
Traffic Light QML Example (Dynamic) demonstrates how to connect to the active properties of a state in a dynamically loaded state machine.
The UI is created using Qt Quick.
Running the Example▲
To run the example from Qt Creator, open the Welcome mode and select the example from Examples. For more information, visit Building and Running an Example.
Dynamically Loading the State Machine▲
We link against the Qt SCXML module by adding the following line to the example .pro file:
QT += qml scxmlWe dynamically create the state machine in the main QML file:
import QtScxml 5.8
TrafficLight {
StateMachineLoader {
id: loader
source: "qrc:///statemachine.scxml"
}
stateMachine: loader.stateMachine
}Connecting to States▲
In the SCXML file, we specify states for each light: red, yellow, and green. In the <onentry> element, we specify the event to send when entering the state and the delay in seconds before sending the event. In the <transition> element, we specify the event that triggers the transition to the state specified by the target attribute:
<state id="red">
<onentry>
<send event="startGoingGreen" delay="3s"/>
</onentry>
<transition event="startGoingGreen" target="redGoingGreen"/>
</state>
<state id="yellow" initial="greenGoingRed">
<state id="redGoingGreen">
<onentry>
<send event="goGreen" delay="1s"/>
</onentry>
<transition event="goGreen" target="green"/>
</state>
<state id="greenGoingRed">
<onentry>
<send event="goRed" delay="1s"/>
</onentry>
<transition event="goRed" target="red"/>
</state>
</state>
<state id="green">
<onentry>
<send event="startGoingRed" delay="3s"/>
