GetActionSourceStateNames
Description
Returns the source state names associated with the current action.
Use this call to allow an external application to navigate the state transition matrix.
Whereas GetDefaultActionName returns the default action name associated with the current state, this method returns the source state names associated with the current action.
Like the other parts of an EntityDef object, the administrator sets the defined states using Rational® ClearQuest® Designer. They cannot be set directly from the API.
