Overview of Spring Statemachine features
mainSpring Statemachine (SSM) is a framework designed to integrate traditional state machine concepts into Spring applications. It allows developers to manage complex application logic by defining a finite number of states and the rules for transitioning between them.
Key features include:
- Flat State Machines: Simple, one-level state configurations for straightforward use cases.
- Hierarchical State Machines: Support for nested state structures to manage complexity.
- State Machine Regions: Support for even more advanced, multi-dimensional state configurations.
- Core Logic Components: Use of triggers, transitions, guards, and actions to define behavior.
- Type-safe Configuration: A configuration adapter that ensures type safety during setup.
- Event Listeners: Ability to listen to state machine lifecycle events.
- Spring IoC Integration: Seamless association of Spring beans with the state machine.
