State Initialization Sample

Download sample

This sample demonstrates a simple use of the StateInitializationActivity activity. The StateInitializationActivity activity functions much like a typical SequenceActivity activity, except that it is used as the first activity in a state in a StateMachineWorkflowActivity.

The sample creates a simple state machine workflow that has two states: an initial state (StartState), and a completed state (CompletedState). The initial state contains a StateInitializationActivity activity, which in turn contains a CodeActivity activity and a SetStateActivity activity. When the StateInitializationActivity activity executes, the contained activities execute in sequence.
