 * Obsoleted constructor with main object reference again. Instead, use
 * WritableMain property. When this is set on a composite state object,
 * the abstract method "ConfigureCompositeStateMachine" is called, and the
 * configuration of the state machine can be made.
 * 
 * 5     08-04-25 9:02 Mattias.larsson
 * Obsoleted the WritableMain-usage. A state-constructor taking the
 * Main-object as an argument should be used.
