Subject: Re: SNL: state change statement in entry block

When you think of a state diagram, it makes sense that state transitions do not belong in an entry block. On the diagram, the entry condition is just text that specifies information related to entering the state. Nothing would prevent someone altering the traditional semantics but it would probably be better to be consistent with common usage.

I had put a state change statement in the entry block of one of my states and the 2.2.1 compiler kicked it out. Evidently it only allowed them in transition blocks. I re-arrange my code to get around the restriction but I was curious: What is the problem with having a state change statement in an entry block?
