Hi,
The current code is taking care of 'src' attribute for state, parallel, assign
and invoke element.
Invoke element should still accept 'src' attribute, but it seems to have been
removed for the other elements in the current specification.
The src atttribute for state and parallel was removed from the specification
several years ago, May 2010, with the suggestion to use the xinclude standard
instead.
See: http://www.w3.org/TR/2010/WD-scxml-20100513/#files
Do we need to deprecate (and remove later) the current behavior for those
elements except of invoke element?
Or is there still any good reason to keep the feature for some reason (e.g,
overriding something from the 'src' for state/parallel element as a
commons-scxml feature) ?
Deprecate seems the reasonable thing to do as the xinclude solution is said to
provide a superior version of the same functionality. But that should be
validated and properly tested first before dropping the current implementation.
But that shouldn't happen anyway until the next major release for SCXML, after
the 2.0 release.
Side note: the <data> and <script> elements also have optional usage of an
external src, not just <invoke>.
