----------------------------- StateMachine::Gestinanna 0.05 ----------------------------- StateMachine::Gestinanna is a fairly simple state machine implementation that is driven by the application. It does not actually drive an application but provides hints as to what the application should do next. It is designed to be especially helpful in an Model/View/Controller web-application environment to help the controller decide which view should be used. However, it may also be used in other areas, such as traditional GUIs. StateMachine::Gestinanna supports both ISA and HASA inheritance of state transition definitions and code triggered by those transitions. This allows the development of classes of applications. To install StateMachine::Gestinanna, download the distribution, untar, and cd into the resulting directory. There, run the following: % perl Makefile.PL % make % make test % make install The following modules are required: Class::Container 0.07 Data::FormValidator 1.9 Error 0.15 Params::Validate 0.24 YAML 0.35 The author lurks on the mod_perl list as well as various IRC channels. The list for the Gestinanna project is also appropriate. Feel free to send questions there. Copyright (C) 2002 Texas A&M University. All Rights Reserved.
