StateML::Arc - A transition between states
An arc is a transition between states; they occur by default or on certain events.
A loopback arc is an arc that transits from a state back to itself.
Arcs can have handlers, either explicitly using one or more <handler>s or by reference to an <action> using an action-id attribute (we need to allow arcs to have multiple actions at some point).
Arcs can contain an <event>, in which case the <arc>'s event-id= is automatically read from the <event> (which in turn may omit it and let StateML::Machine assign one).
On parsing, <arc> elements may appear in <state> elements. When they do, the from= and/or to= attributes may be omitted; they will default to the parent state's id.
Returns the event for this arc, if set.
Returns the event_id if set. If not set (undef), returns the default event's ID if it is present in the machine. Note that "" is a not valid id.
Returns the name if set. If not set, returns the name of the event_id event (if that's set). Note that "" is a valid name.
Like StateML::Object::attribute, but inherits from the event.
Like StateML::Object::attributes, but inherits from all handlers and then the event.
