  1. I tried to install and use it but it seems there is not any executable inside the rpm files.
    Nor does the “make install” step seem to install any binary when building the source code.
    Or am I doing something wrong?

    Anyways thanks for sharing this editor!!!

    1. Kai, that is correct. This is only a library — it does not include an editor program. You might look at GammaRay which uses KDStateMachineEditor to help visualize state machines.

      1. “KDStateMachineEditor is a Qt-based framework for creating Qt State Machine metacode using a graphical user interface.”

        Well, from the text above I would expect this tool to also come with a UI component. I thought this would be the essence of the tool.

        Unfortunately there are no prebuilt binaries for Ubuntu 14.04. 🙁
