Allows an SCXML application to iterate through a collection in the data model and to execute the actions contained within it for each item in the collection.
| Name | Required | Type | Default Value | Valid Values | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| array | true | Value expression | none | A value expression that evaluates to an iterable collection | The <foreach> element will iterate over a shallow copy of this collection |
| item | true | xsd:string | none | Any variable name that is valid in the specified data model | A variable that stores a different item of the collection in each iteration of the loop |
| index | false | xsd:string | none | Any variable name that is valid in the specified data model | A variable that stores the current iteration index upon each iteration of the foreach loop |

In the foreach element, the SCXML processor MUST declare a new variable if the one specified by 'item' is not already defined.

</scxml>In the foreach element, if 'array' does not evaluate to a legal iterable collection, or if 'item' does not specify a legal variable name, the SCXML processor MUST terminate execution of the foreach element and the block that contains it, and place the error error.execution on the internal event queue.

</scxml>When evaluating foreach, the SCXML processor MUST start with the first item in the collection and proceed to the last item in the iteration order that is defined for the collection. For each item in the collection in turn, the processor MUST assign it to the item variable.
When evaluating foreach, for each item, after making the assignment, the SCXML processor MUST evaluate its child executable content. It MUST then proceed to the next item in iteration order.
If the evaluation of any child element of foreach causes an error, the processor MUST cease execution of the foreach element and the block that contains it.
The SCXML processor MUST act as if it has made a shallow copy of the collection produced by the evaluation of 'array'. Specifically, modifications to the collection during the execution of foreach MUST NOT affect the iteration behavior.
