.. java:type:: abstract class State
   :outertype: Activatable

   A utility base class which can be used to implement a state pattern which fulfills the \ :java:ref:`Activatable`\  interface. Classes implementing \ :java:ref:`Activatable`\  can create own state classes derived from this one to inherit the default behavior for \ :java:ref:`activate()`\  and \ :java:ref:`deactivate()`\ . The base implementations of \ :java:ref:`activate()`\  and \ :java:ref:`deactivate()`\  always throw an \ :java:ref:`IllegalStateException`\ .
