-There are two diagrams that can be used to express dynamic behaviour in the UML. State machine diagrams express the states of an object and the events and transitions to change the state. In opposite activity diagrams (aka flow diagrams) describe the control flow of an algorithm. The great thing of both types of diagrams is that they allow to generate 100% code out of the model description.

 The latest version of the sinelabore code generator can now also generate code from activity diagrams. Activity diagrams consist of the following elements:
-  * black circle to indicate the begin of the activity
+  * Black circle to indicate the begin of the activity
   * Circled black circle to indicate the end of the activity (return)
   * Rounded rectangles representing actions

-The generated c-file can be found {{:wiki:news:testcase_test_operation.c|here}}. Due the way the algorithm is generated (based on an a while loop with switch / case statements) all kinds of loops including back links can be generated without problem. For the shown diagram the generated code contains just 180 lines of code including empty lines and some documentation.

 ⇒The activity generator backend is still under development. Error handling and parser robustness must be increased. Additionally sections about the activity generator must be added to the manual.

-Beside the activity generator backend the new version also contains several improvements in the state machine generator. In addition support for regions in Java was added.
