public interface Manageable
extends Manageable_base

This interface is a management utility, which can be implemented by a software component so that it can be accessed by means of Java Management eXtensions (JMX) in particular.

Compatibility: Java 9.

Method Details

to_state

void to_state(java.lang.String name)
       throws State_exception

This method forces a software component to move to a given state, thus forcing its orthogonal states and superstates to be also active.

Its typical implementation is as follows: _my_state_machine.to_state("A state"); where the type of the _my_state_machine field in the component is AbstractStateMachine. Caution: this method triggers the entry and exit actions associated with states.

Parameters:

name - The name of the state to which the state machine goes to.

Throws:

State_exception
