A state machine program is generated from a state machine. The state machine has states, transitions and events. A basic structure for the state machine program is generated. The basic structure has therein a structure that operates in non-final states. A statement is generated within the structure for detecting an event. A statement is generated within the structure for evaluating the detected event based on a current state to identify if the current state is valid for the detected event. A statement is generated within the structure for determining a next state if the current state is valid. A statement is generated within the structure for transitioning the current state to the next state.
