compound state: transition and naming isse

[tfahringer]

Let's assume we have a single scxml session/element with 2 compound states in sequence. Can these 2 compound states have child states with identical names but entirely different content/semantics?

Is there any rule in SCXML that prevents using the same name of states across arbitrary nesting of parallel and compound states?

Let's assume there is a compound state getCC with several child states one of them is child state c1. How can I create a transition from within the same scxml session to c1 if c1 is not the initial state? what is the syntax of it?

what if there is a deep nesting of states such as getCC/c1/cc1/ccc3 ... where cc1 is a child state of c1 and ccc3 is a child state of cc1.
how can i transition to ccc3 from outside? What is the syntax for the target for such a transition?

In single SCXML all names must be unique within session. It is allowed to be duplicated only in submachines called via invoke element

@tfahringer , I would reccomend to download and test scxml in ScxmlEditor application. It has different scxml static checks and you will be able to execute and test it in live session
