- <modulesummary>Generic finite state machine behavior.</modulesummary>
- <description>
- <note>
- <p>
- There is a new behaviour
- <seealso marker="gen_statem"><c>gen_statem</c></seealso>
- that is intended to replace <c>gen_fsm</c> for new code.
- <c>gen_fsm</c> will not be removed for the foreseeable future
- to keep old state machine implementations running.
- </p>
- </note>
- <p>This behavior module provides a finite state machine.
- A generic finite state machine process (<c>gen_fsm</c>) implemented
- using this module has a standard set of interface functions
- and includes functionality for tracing and error reporting. It
- also fits into an OTP supervision tree. For more information, see
- <seealso marker="doc/design_principles:fsm">OTP Design Principles</seealso>.
- </p>
-
- <p>A <c>gen_fsm</c> process assumes all specific parts to be located in a
- callback module exporting a predefined set of functions. The relationship
- between the behavior functions and the callback functions is as
- follows:</p>
-
- <pre>
-gen_fsm module Callback module
--------------- ---------------
-gen_fsm:start
-gen_fsm:start_link -----> Module:init/1
-
-gen_fsm:stop -----> Module:terminate/3
-
-gen_fsm:send_event -----> Module:StateName/2
-
-gen_fsm:send_all_state_event -----> Module:handle_event/3
-
-gen_fsm:sync_send_event -----> Module:StateName/3
-
-gen_fsm:sync_send_all_state_event -----> Module:handle_sync_event/4

-- -----> Module:terminate/3
+ <modulesummary>Deprecated and replaced by <seealso marker="gen_statem"><c>gen_statem</c></seealso> </modulesummary>
-- -----> Module:code_change/4</pre>
-
- <p>If a callback function fails or returns a bad value, the <c>gen_fsm</c>
- process terminates.</p>
-
- <p>A <c>gen_fsm</c> process handles system messages as described in
- <seealso marker="sys"><c>sys(3)</c></seealso>. The <c>sys</c> module
- can be used for debugging a <c>gen_fsm</c> process.</p>
-
- <p>Notice that a <c>gen_fsm</c> process does not trap exit signals
- automatically, this must be explicitly initiated in the callback
- module.</p>
-
- <p>Unless otherwise stated, all functions in this module fail if
- the specified <c>gen_fsm</c> process does not exist or if bad arguments
- are specified.</p>
-
- <p>The <c>gen_fsm</c> process can go into hibernation
- (see <seealso marker="erts:erlang#hibernate/3">
- <c>erlang:hibernate/3</c></seealso>) if a callback function
- specifies <c>'hibernate'</c> instead of a time-out value. This
- can be useful if the server is expected to be idle for a long
- time. However, use this feature with care, as hibernation
- implies at least two garbage collections (when hibernating and
- shortly after waking up) and is not something you want to do
- between each call to a busy state machine.</p>

- <p>This callback is optional, so callback modules need not

- module state data.</p>
- </note>
- <p>This function is called by a <c>gen_fsm</c> process in the
- following situations:</p>
- <list type="bulleted">
- <item>One of <seealso marker="sys#get_status/1">
- <c>sys:get_status/1,2</c></seealso>

- </list>
- <p>This function is useful for changing the form and
- appearance of the <c>gen_fsm</c> status for these cases. A callback
- module wishing to change the <c>sys:get_status/1,2</c>
- return value as well as how its status appears in

- <p><c>PDict</c> is the current value of the process dictionary of the
- <c>gen_fsm</c> process.</p>
- <p><c>StateData</c> is the internal state data of the
- <c>gen_fsm</c> process.</p>
- <p>The function is to return <c>Status</c>, a term that
- change the details of the current state and status of
- the <c>gen_fsm</c> process. There are no restrictions on the
- form <c>Status</c> can take, but for
- the <c>sys:get_status/1,2</c> case (when <c>Opt</c>
- is <c>normal</c>), the recommended form for
- the <c>Status</c> value is <c>[{data, [{"StateData",
- Term}]}]</c>, where <c>Term</c> provides relevant details of
- the <c>gen_fsm</c> state data. Following this recommendation is not
- required, but it makes the callback module status
- consistent with the rest of the <c>sys:get_status/1,2</c>
