Re: [Boost-users] [statechart] Pass event data to state constructor?

Hi Bill

I'd like to be able to communicate the data from an event to the state(s) that get constructed as a result of a transition.

That's a pretty common request, see item 3 on the to-do list: http://www.boost.org/libs/statechart/doc/future_and_history.html#ToDoList As stated in the todo-item, passing event data to the state constructor is not as straight-forward as it might seem. You are bound to lose event type-safety. However, if you have a compelling use-case, I'm willing to finally implement this feature.
