+ The <c>ssh_connection_handler</c> module in SSH is

+ The module can be used as an example of a

+ This commit of ssh is just a straightforward port from
+ gen_fsm to gen_statem with some code cleaning. Since the
+ state machine and the state callbacks are almost
+ unchanged the ssh module does not demonstrate the full
+ potential of the new behaviour.</p>
+ <p>
+ The "new" state machine uses compound states. The ssh
+ server and client state machines are quite similar but
+ differences exist. With <c>gen_fsm</c> there were flags
+ in the user data which in fact implemented "substates".
+ Now with <c>gen_statem</c> those are made explicit in the
+ state names, eg. the state <c>userauth</c> and the binary
+ <c>role</c>-flag becomes the two state names
+ <c>{userauth, server}</c> and <c>{userauth, client}</c>.</p>
