 <description>
- Deprecated and replaced by <seeerl marker="gen_statem"><c>gen_statem</c></seeerl> 
+ <note>
+ 
+	There is a new behaviour
+	<seeerl marker="gen_statem"><c>gen_statem</c></seeerl>
+	that is intended to replace <c>gen_fsm</c> for new code.
+	<c>gen_fsm</c> will not be removed for the foreseeable future
+	to keep old state machine implementations running.
+ 
+ </note>
+ This behavior module provides a finite state machine.
+ A generic finite state machine process (<c>gen_fsm</c>) implemented
+ using this module has a standard set of interface functions
+ and includes functionality for tracing and error reporting. It
+ also fits into an OTP supervision tree. For more information, see
+ <seeguide marker="doc/design_principles:fsm">OTP Design Principles</seeguide>.
+ 
+
+ A <c>gen_fsm</c> process assumes all specific parts to be located in a
+ callback module exporting a predefined set of functions. The relationship
+ between the behavior functions and the callback functions is as
+ follows:
+
+ <pre>
+gen_fsm module Callback module
+-------------- ---------------
+gen_fsm:start
+gen_fsm:start_link -----> Module:init/1
+
+gen_fsm:stop -----> Module:terminate/3
+
+gen_fsm:send_event -----> Module:StateName/2
+
+gen_fsm:send_all_state_event -----> Module:handle_event/3
+
+gen_fsm:sync_send_event -----> Module:StateName/3
+
+gen_fsm:sync_send_all_state_event -----> Module:handle_sync_event/4
+
+- -----> Module:handle_info/3
+
+- -----> Module:terminate/3
+
+- -----> Module:code_change/4</pre>
+
+ If a callback function fails or returns a bad value, the <c>gen_fsm</c>
+ process terminates.
+
+ A <c>gen_fsm</c> process handles system messages as described in
+ <seeerl marker="sys"><c>sys(3)</c></seeerl>. The <c>sys</c> module
+ can be used for debugging a <c>gen_fsm</c> process.
+
+ Notice that a <c>gen_fsm</c> process does not trap exit signals
+ automatically, this must be explicitly initiated in the callback
+ module.
+
+ Unless otherwise stated, all functions in this module fail if
+ the specified <c>gen_fsm</c> process does not exist or if bad arguments
+ are specified.
+
+ The <c>gen_fsm</c> process can go into hibernation
+ (see <seemfa marker="erts:erlang#hibernate/3">
+ <c>erlang:hibernate/3</c></seemfa>) if a callback function
+ specifies <c>'hibernate'</c> instead of a time-out value. This
+ can be useful if the server is expected to be idle for a long
+ time. However, use this feature with care, as hibernation
+ implies at least two garbage collections (when hibernating and
+ shortly after waking up) and is not something you want to do
+ between each call to a busy state machine.

+ This function is called by a <c>gen_fsm</c> process when it is to

+ that is, when instruction <c>{update,Module,Change,...}</c>,
+ where <c>Change={advanced,Extra}</c>, is given in
+ the <c>appup</c> file; see section
+ <seeguide marker="doc/design_principles:release_handling#instr">
+ Release Handling Instructions</seeguide> in OTP Design Principles.
+ For an upgrade, <c>OldVsn</c> is <c>Vsn</c>, and for a downgrade,
+ <c>OldVsn</c> is <c>{down,Vsn}</c>. <c>Vsn</c> is defined by the
+ <c>vsn</c> attribute(s) of the old version of the callback module
+ <c>Module</c>. If no such attribute is defined, the version is
+ the checksum of the Beam file.
+ <c>StateName</c> is the current state name and <c>StateData</c> the
+ internal state data of the <c>gen_fsm</c> process.
+ <c>Extra</c> is passed "as is" from the <c>{advanced,Extra}</c>
+ part of the update instruction.
+ The function is to return the new current state name and
+ updated internal data.

+ <name>Module:format_status(Opt, [PDict, StateData]) -> Status</name>
+ <fsummary>Optional function for providing a term describing the
+ current <c>gen_fsm</c> process status.</fsummary>
+ <type>
+ <v>Opt = normal | terminate</v>
+ <v>PDict = [{Key, Value}]</v>

+ </type>
+ <desc>
+ <note>
+ This callback is optional, so callback modules need not
+ export it. The <c>gen_fsm</c> module provides a default
+ implementation of this function that returns the callback
+ module state data.
+ </note>
+ This function is called by a <c>gen_fsm</c> process in the
+ following situations:
+ <list type="bulleted">
+ <item>One of <seemfa marker="sys#get_status/1">
+ <c>sys:get_status/1,2</c></seemfa>
+ is invoked to get the <c>gen_fsm</c> status. <c>Opt</c> is set to
+ the atom <c>normal</c> for this case.</item>
+ <item>The <c>gen_fsm</c> process terminates abnormally and logs an
+ error. <c>Opt</c> is set to the atom <c>terminate</c> for
+ this case.</item>
+ </list>
+ This function is useful for changing the form and
+ appearance of the <c>gen_fsm</c> status for these cases. A callback
+ module wishing to change the <c>sys:get_status/1,2</c>
+ return value as well as how its status appears in
+ termination error logs, exports an instance
+ of <c>format_status/2</c> that returns a term describing the
+ current status of the <c>gen_fsm</c> process.
+ <c>PDict</c> is the current value of the process dictionary of the
+ <c>gen_fsm</c> process.
+ <c>StateData</c> is the internal state data of the
+ <c>gen_fsm</c> process.
+ The function is to return <c>Status</c>, a term that
+ change the details of the current state and status of
+ the <c>gen_fsm</c> process. There are no restrictions on the
+ form <c>Status</c> can take, but for
+ the <c>sys:get_status/1,2</c> case (when <c>Opt</c>
+ is <c>normal</c>), the recommended form for
+ the <c>Status</c> value is <c>[{data, [{"StateData",
+ Term}]}]</c>, where <c>Term</c> provides relevant details of
+ the <c>gen_fsm</c> state data. Following this recommendation is not
+ required, but it makes the callback module status
+ consistent with the rest of the <c>sys:get_status/1,2</c>
+ return value.
+ One use for this function is to return compact alternative
+ state data representations to avoid that large state terms
+ are printed in log files.
