| <i>Q: Whats a library without usecases?</i><br/> |
| <i>A:</i> |
| </p> |
| |
| <subsection name="Introduction"> |
| <p> |
| There are numerous use cases for an engine like Commons SCXML. Any process |
| that can be represented as a UML state chart, for example, business process |
| flows, view navigation bits, interaction or dialog management etc. (this is, |
| by no means, a comprehensive list), can leverage the Commons SCXML engine |
| library. We illustrate just a few sample usecases as illustrations. |
| </p> |
| </subsection> |
| |
| <subsection name="Samples"> |
| <p>Simple usecases, and beyond:</p> |
| <subsection name="Simple"> |
| <p>These are "standalone" usecases, which do not require any knowledge |
| beyond beginner Java and beginner XML. |
| <ul> |
| <li><a href="usecases/scxml-stopwatch.html">Usecase 1</a> - |
| Using Commons SCXML to model and implement behavior of stateful |
| objects (SCXML stopwatch example).</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| </subsection> |
| <subsection name="Advanced"> |
| <p>These are usecases within frameworks available in the open source |
| community, and are labeled advanced since they require some additional |
| knowledge about the framework relevant to the particular usecase. |
| <ul> |
| <li><a href="usecases/scxml-in-rdc-group.html">Usecase 2</a> - Use in |
| <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/doc/rdc-doc/intro.html"> |
| Reusable Dialog Components (RDC) Framework</a> <group> |
| container.</li> |
| <li><a href="usecases/scxml-in-shale-dialogs.html">Usecase 3</a> - |
| Use in <a href="http://shale.apache.org/">Shale</a> dialogs</li> |
| <li><a href="usecases/scxml-stopwatch-on-android.html">Usecase 4</a> - |
| SCXML stopwatch example in <a href="http://code.google.com/android/">Google Android</a> |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| </subsection> |
| <p>If you know of another usecase we should list or if you are interesting |
| in seeing if SCXML fits a usecase you have in mind, contact us via the |
| <a href="mail-lists.html">mailing lists</a>. |
