public abstract class Action extends StringAttribute
When the FSMActor is fired, an enabled transition among the outgoing transitions of the current state is chosen. The choice actions contained by the chosen transition are executed. An action is a choice action if it implements the ChoiceAction marker interface. A choice action may be executed more than once during an iteration in domains with fixed-point semantics.
When the FSMActor is postfired, the chosen transition of the latest firing of the actor is committed. The commit actions contained by the transition are executed and the current state of the actor is set to the destination state of the transition. An action is a commit action if it implements the CommitAction marker interface.
