Someone asked about trying the samples, should have been a FAQ entry long ago.

+ ==== How do I try out the sample SCXML documents? ====
+ 
+ The SCXML distribution provides a utility class {{{org.apache.commons.scxml.env.jsp.Standalone}}} which provides a ''mock environment'' allowing users to try out samples. The core dependencies for Commons SCXML are Commons Digester (which introduces a transitive dependency on Commons Bean``````Utils, at the least) and Commons Logging. In addition, an environment specific expression language is used in SCXML documents. The {{{Standalone}}} class anticipates expressions in the JSP 2.0 Expression Language, and hence requires commons-el.jar and jsp-api.jar. View the [http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/sandbox/scxml/dependencies.html dependencies page] for the recommended version numbers. It may be possible to use lower version numbers for the Commons dependencies. So that amounts to:
+ 
+ {{{
+ java -classpath
+ 
+ commons-digester-1.7.jar;commons-beanutils-1.7.0.jar;
+ commons-logging-1.0.4.jar;commons-scxml-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar;
+ commons-el-1.0.jar;jsp-api-2.0.jar 
+ 
+ org.apache.commons.scxml.env.jsp.Standalone 
+ 
+ microwave01.xml
+ }}}
+ 
+ with the correct local paths to the {{{jar}}} files and the {{{XML}}} (SCXML) document (and without the line breaks). You could set up something more elegant (a script, an ant task etc.), but that is what it boils down to. A few examples are available as part of the [http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/commons/sandbox/scxml/trunk/src/test/java/org/apache/commons/scxml/ Commons SCXML test suite]. Enjoy, and feedback is always welcome.

  ==== How do I enable / control the logging within the Commons SCXML package? ====
  
  Commons SCXML uses Commons Logging. See the [http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging/ Commons Logging Website] for more details.
