The transition dialogues should look like this: For ping:

For pingSimple:

7.6.2 Define MrPing behavior

Within the outline view double click MrPing. Navigate the cursor to the behavior of MrPing. With the help of content assist create a new operation.

Name the operation printData and define the DemoData as a parameter.

Fill in the following code:

Operation printData(d: DemoData) : void {
            "System.out.printf(\"d.int32Val: %d\\n\",d.int32Val);"
            "System.out.printf(\"d.float64Val: %f\\n\",d.float64Val);"
            "System.out.printf(\"d.int8Array: \");"
            "for(int i = 0; i<d.int8Array.length; i++) {"
            "System.out.printf(\"%d \",d.int8Array[i]);}"
            "System.out.printf(\"\\nd.stringVal: %s\\n\",d.stringVal);"
}

For MrPing create the following state machine: (Remember that you can copy and paste the action code from the tutorial directory.)

The transition dialogues should look like this:

For init:

For wait1:

For next:

For wait2:

[next] [prev] [prev-tail] [front] [up]
