public class SCXMLExecutor
extends Object
implements Serializable

The SCXML "engine" that executes SCXML documents. The particular semantics used by this engine for executing the SCXML are encapsulated in the SCXMLSemantics implementation that it uses.

The default implementation is `org.apache.commons.scxml.semantics.SCXMLSemanticsImpl`
