jackwadden / VASim

VASim is a virtual homogeneous non-deterministic finite automata automata simulator and transformation tool. VASim can parse, transform, simulate, and profile homogeneous NFAs, and is meant to be an open tool for automata processing research. VASim can also be extended to support hypothetical automata processing elements.

dump-state print files #25

Closed karakchi closed 6 years ago

karakchi commented 6 years ago

Hi Jack, What means in dump-state debug? and what are you trying to print in stes_.states files? Is it only self-loops? Thanks,

jackwadden commented 6 years ago

"Dump state" is meant for debugging purposes. It "dumps" all activated states to a file during a specified cycle. This allows you to peak inside of the execution core of VASim without setting breakpoints etc...

Let me know if you need extra functionality or if the dump-state flag isn't working. That flag actually no longer prints the special element activity. I'll update the usage to be clearer.

Sure,I'll let you know if I need extra functionality, Thanks Jack!
