#+TITLE: Creating an automaton in C++
#+SETUPFILE: setup.org
#+HTML_LINK_UP: tut.html

This example demonstrates how to create an automaton in C++, and then print it.

#+BEGIN_SRC C++ :results verbatim :exports both
  #include <iostream>
  #include "twaalgos/hoa.hh"
  #include "twa/twagraph.hh"

  int main(void)
  {
    // The dict is used to maintain the correspondence between the
    // atomic propositions and the BDD variables to label the edges of
    // the automaton.
    spot::bdd_dict_ptr dict = spot::make_bdd_dict();
    // This creates an empty automaton that we have yet to fill.
    spot::twa_graph_ptr aut = make_twa_graph(dict);

    // Since a BDD is associated to every atomic proposition, the
    // register_ap() function returns a BDD variable number
    // that can be converted into a BDD using bdd_ithvar().
    bdd p1 = bdd_ithvar(aut->register_ap("p1"));
    bdd p2 = bdd_ithvar(aut->register_ap("p2"));

    // Set the acceptance condition of the automaton to Inf(0)&Inf(1)
    aut->set_generalized_buchi(2);

    // States are numbered from 0.
    aut->new_states(3);

    // new_edge() takes 3 mandatory parameters:
    // source state, destination state, label
    // and a last optional parameter can be used
    // to specify membership to acceptance sets.
    aut->new_edge(0, 1, p1);
    aut->new_edge(1, 1, p1 & p2, {0});
    aut->new_edge(1, 2, p2, {1});
    aut->new_edge(2, 1, p1 | p2, {0, 1});

    // Print the resulting automaton.
    print_hoa(std::cout, aut);
    return 0;
