Hi
I have a problem similar to the one described in the Statechart tutorial, but a little different. My state machine has two states (let's call them A and B) in the different state hierarchies and a third state C that can be transited to from either A or B. The transition from C must be done to either A or B, depending on where we came to C from.
So I've decided to use the history. The difference between this problem and what's described in the tutorial is that A and B don't belong to the same composite state (they only belong to the same state machine). I can't simply declare "has_xxx_history" in the outer state like it's done in the tutorial.
If you want to transition to either state_A or state_B from state_C based on history, I'm afraid putting state_A and state_B in the same direct or indirect outer state is your only option. That's how history works. In your example, it seems it would be possible to put state_A and state_B into a new outer state state_X and transition to state_X with deep history, no?
