Detailed Description
SCXML events drive transitions. Most events are generated by using the <raise> and <send>
elements in the application. The state machine automatically generates some mandatory events,
such as errors.
For more information, see SCXML Specification - 5.10.1 The Internal Structure of Events . For
more information about how the Qt SCXML API differs from the specification, see SCXML
Compliance .

class EventType
This enum type specifies the type of an SCXML event:
Con s t a nt Description

QScxmlEvent.InternalEvent An event generated by a <raise> element.
QScxmlEvent.ExternalEvent An event generated by a <send> element.
Note
Properties can be used directly when from __feature__ import true_property is used or via accessor functions
otherwise.
property data: object
This property holds the data included by the sender..
When <param> elements are used in the <send> element, the data will contain a QVariantMap
where the key is the name attribute, and the value is taken from the expr attribute or the location
attribute.
When a <content> element is used, the data will contain a single item with either the value of the
expr attribute of the <content> element or the child data of the <content> element.

• data()
• setData()
property delay: int
This property holds The delay in milliseconds after which the event is to be delivered after
processing the <send> element..
Acce s s f u n c t i o n s :
• delay()
• setDelay()
property errorEvent: bool
This property holds Whether the event represents an error..
Acce s s f u n c t i o n s :
• isErrorEvent()
property errorMessage: str
This property holds An error message for an error event, or an empty QString..

Acce s s f u n c t i o n s :
• errorMessage()
• setErrorMessage()
property eventType: QScxmlEvent.EventType
This property holds the type of the event..
Acce s s f u n c t i o n s :
• eventType()
• setEventType()
property invokeId: str
This property holds the ID of the invoked state machine if the event is generated by one..
Acce s s f u n c t i o n s :
• invokeId()
• setInvokeId()
property name: str
This property holds the name of the event..
If the event is generated inside the SCXML document, this property holds the value of the event
attribute specified inside the <raise> or <send> element.
If the event is created in the C++ code and submitted to the QScxmlStateMachine , the value of this
property is matched against the value of the event attribute specified inside the <transition>
element in the SCXML document.
Acce s s f u n c t i o n s :
• name()
• setName()
property origin: str
This property holds the URI that points to the origin of an SCXML event..
The origin is equivalent to the target attribute of the <send> element.

• origin()
• setOrigin()

setOrigin()
property originType: str
This property holds the origin type of an SCXML event..
The origin type is equivalent to the type attribute of the <send> element.
Acce s s f u n c t i o n s :
• originType()
• setOriginType()
property scxmlType: str
This property holds The event type..
Acce s s f u n c t i o n s :
• scxmlType()
property sendId: str
This property holds the ID of the event..
The ID is used by the <cancel> element to identify the event to be canceled.
Note
The state machine generates a unique ID if the id attribute is not specified in the <send> element. The generated ID
can be accessed through this property.
