ROM friendly? What is it?
This means in particular that the transition table should be initialized at static phase of static initialization so that a compiler can store it in read-only memory. I know it's very important in embedded environment where fsm are often used, to store as much as possible in read-only memory.
Such ROMable classes also cannot have constructors or destructors.
The transition rules are never created, so they are ROM friendly. :) I'm not quite sure if it is possible to make other entities of FSM read-only with no structors. There are quite a few static dispatching maps in the implementation, but they have to be filled sometime, even though they are constant through the rest of the state machine's lifetime. -- Best regards, Andrey mailto:andysem@mail.ru
