/**
 * {@hide}
 *
 * Implement a state machine where each state is an object,
 * HandlerState. Each HandlerState must implement processMessage
 * and optionally enter/exit. When a state machine is created
 * the initial state must be set. When messages are sent to
 * a state machine the current state's processMessage method is
 * invoked. If this is the first message for this state the
 * enter method is called prior to processMessage and when
 * transtionTo is invoked the state's exit method will be
 * called after returning from processMessage.
 *
 * If a message should be handled in a different state the
 * processMessage method may call deferMessage. This causes
 * the message to be saved on a list until transitioning
 * to a new state, at which time all of the deferred messages
 * will be put on the front of the state machines queue and
 * processed by the new current state's processMessage
 * method.
 *
 * Below is an example state machine with two state's, S1 and S2.
 * The initial state is S1 which defers all messages and only
 * transition to S2 when message.what == TEST_WHAT_2. State S2
 * will process each messages until it receives TEST_WHAT_2
 * where it will transition back to S1:
<code>
     class StateMachine1 extends HandlerStateMachine {
        private static final int TEST_WHAT_1 = 1;
        private static final int TEST_WHAT_2 = 2;

        StateMachine1(String name) {
            super(name);
            setInitialState(mS1);
        }

        class S1 extends HandlerState {
            @Override public void enter(Message message) {
            }

            @Override public void processMessage(Message message) {
                deferMessage(message);
                if (message.what == TEST_WHAT_2) {
                    transitionTo(mS2);
                }
            }

            @Override public void exit(Message message) {
            }
        }

        class S2 extends HandlerState {
            @Override public void processMessage(Message message) {
                // Do some processing
                if (message.what == TEST_WHAT_2) {
                    transtionTo(mS1);
                }
            }
        }
