    • Method Detail

      • finishLoad

        public void finishLoad()
        Helper function that will be invoked after construction once the type has been set. Used specifically for preventing double initialization when loading turnouts from XML.
        Specified by:
        finishLoad in interface BiDiBNamedBeanInterface
      • canInvert

        public boolean canInvert()
        Determine if the turnouts can be inverted. If true, inverted turnouts are supported.
        Specified by:
        canInvert in interface Turnout
        Overrides:
        canInvert in class AbstractTurnout
        Returns:
        invert supported
      • forwardCommandChangeToLayout

        protected void forwardCommandChangeToLayout​(int s)
        Handle a request to change state, typically by sending a message to the layout in some child class. Public version (used by TurnoutOperator) sends the current commanded state without changing it. Implementing classes will typically check the value of s and send a system specific sendMessage command.
        Specified by:
        forwardCommandChangeToLayout in class AbstractTurnout
        Parameters:
        s - new state value
      • sendQuery

        public void sendQuery()
        Request the state of the accessory from the layout. The listener gets the answer.
      • sendMessage

        protected void sendMessage​(boolean closed)
        Send a thrown/closed message to BiDiB
        Parameters:
        closed - true of the turnout should be switched to CLOSED, false to switch to THROWN
      • dispose

        public void dispose()
        Deactivate this object, so that it releases as many resources as possible and no longer effects others.

        For example, if this object has listeners, after a call to this method it should no longer notify those listeners. Any native or system-wide resources it maintains should be released, including threads, files, etc.

        It is an error to invoke any other methods on this object once dispose() has been called. Note, however, that there is no guarantee about behavior in that case.

        Afterwards, references to this object may still exist elsewhere, preventing its garbage collection. But it's formally dead, and shouldn't be keeping any other objects alive. Therefore, this method should null out any references to other objects that this NamedBean contained. Remove the Message Listener for this turnout

        Specified by:
        dispose in interface NamedBean
        Overrides:
        dispose in class AbstractTurnout
