[Boost].SML (State Machine Language)

Your scalable C++14 one header only State Machine Library with no dependencies (Try it online!)


Let's release a TCP connection!

tcp release

Quick start

Download

[Boost].SML requires only one file. Get the latest header here!

Include

#include <boost/sml.hpp>
namespace sml = boost::sml;

Dependencies

struct sender {
  template<class TMsg>
  constexpr void send(const TMsg& msg) { std::printf("send: %d\n", msg.id); }
};

Events

struct ack { bool valid{}; };
struct fin { int id{}; bool valid{}; };
struct release {};
struct timeout {};

Guards

constexpr auto is_valid = [](const auto& event) { return event.valid; };

Actions

constexpr auto send_fin = [](sender& s) { s.send(fin{0}); };
constexpr auto send_ack = [](const auto& event, sender& s) { s.send(event); };

State Machine

struct tcp_release final {
  auto operator()() const {
    using namespace sml;
    /**
     * Initial state: *initial_state
     * Transition DSL: src_state + event [ guard ] / action = dst_state
     */
    return make_transition_table(
      *"established"_s + event<release>          / send_fin  = "fin wait 1"_s,
       "fin wait 1"_s  + event<ack> [ is_valid ]             = "fin wait 2"_s,
       "fin wait 2"_s  + event<fin> [ is_valid ] / send_ack  = "timed wait"_s,
       "timed wait"_s  + event<timeout>                      = X
    );
  }
};

Usage

int main() {
  using namespace sml;

  sender s{};
  sm<tcp_release> sm{s}; // pass dependencies via ctor
  assert(sm.is("established"_s));

  sm.process_event(release{}); // complexity O(1)
  assert(sm.is("fin wait 1"_s));

  sm.process_event(ack{true}); // prints 'send: 0'
  assert(sm.is("fin wait 2"_s));

  sm.process_event(fin{42, true}); // prints 'send: 42'
  assert(sm.is("timed wait"_s));

  sm.process_event(timeout{});
  assert(sm.is(X));  // terminated
}

MSVC-2015 (Example)

  • use state<class state_name> instead of "state_name"_s
  • expliclty state a lambda's result type auto action = [] -> void {}
