it turns out my answer was incorrect, or at least incomplete. If you have no submachine, then there might be a way around. If you write: p.process_event(pause); where pause is an eUML event, true, it cannot work. However, this works: any_number_event evpause(pause); p.process_event(evpause);
I forgot to add the definition of any:number_event as it was in another
thread:
BOOST_TYPE_ERASURE_MEMBER((has_getNumber), getNumber, 0);
//type erasure event
typedef ::boost::mpl::vector<
has_getNumber
any_number_event_concept; struct any_number_event : boost::type_erasure::any
, msm::front::euml::euml_event { template <class U> any_number_event(U const& u): boost::type_erasure::any (u){} any_number_event(): boost::type_erasure::any (){} };
Used like this: namespace boost { namespace msm{ template<> struct is_kleene_event< any_number_event > { typedef boost::mpl::true_ type; }; }} any_number_event number_event; stt: Playing + number_event / pause_playback == Paused
