    java.awt.event.ComponentListener, java.awt.event.WindowListener, java.awt.image.ImageObserver, java.awt.MenuContainer, java.io.Serializable, java.util.EventListener, javax.accessibility.Accessible, javax.swing.RootPaneContainer, javax.swing.WindowConstants, BeanInterface, InstanceManagerAutoDefault, ModifiedFlag, WindowInterface
    public class DispatcherFrame
extends JmriJFrame
implements InstanceManagerAutoDefault
    Dispatcher functionality, working with Sections, Transits and ActiveTrain.

    Dispatcher serves as the manager for ActiveTrains. All allocation of Sections to ActiveTrains is performed here.

    Programming Note: Use the managed instance returned by InstanceManager.getDefault(java.lang.Class) to access the running Dispatcher.

    Dispatcher listens to fast clock minutes to handle all ActiveTrain items tied to fast clock time.

    Delayed start of manual and automatic trains is enforced by not allocating Sections for trains until the fast clock reaches the departure time.

        Creates a new ActiveTrain, and registers it with Dispatcher.
        Parameters:
        transitID - system or user name of a Transit in the Transit Table
        trainID - any text that identifies the train
        tSource - either ROSTER, OPERATIONS, or USER (see ActiveTrain.java)
        startBlockName - system or user name of Block where train currently resides
        startBlockSectionSequenceNumber - sequence number in the Transit of the Section containing the startBlock (if the startBlock is within the Transit), or of the Section the train will enter from the startBlock (if the startBlock is outside the Transit)
        endBlockName - system or user name of Block where train will end up after its transit
        endBlockSectionSequenceNumber - sequence number in the Transit of the Section containing the endBlock.
        autoRun - set to "true" if computer is to run the train automatically, otherwise "false"
        dccAddress - required if "autoRun" is "true", set to null otherwise
        priority - any integer, higher number is higher priority. Used to arbitrate allocation request conflicts
        resetWhenDone - set to "true" if the Active Train is capable of continuous running and the user has requested that it be automatically reset for another run thru its Transit each time it completes running through its Transit.
        reverseAtEnd - true if train should automatically reverse at end of transit; false otherwise
        showErrorMessages - "true" if error message dialogs are to be displayed for detected errors Set to "false" to suppress error message dialogs from this method.
        frame - window request is from, or "null" if not from a window
        allocateMethod - How allocations will be performed. 999 - Allocate as many section from start to finish as it can 0 - Allocate to the next "Safe" section. If it cannot allocate all the way to the next "safe" section it does not allocate any sections. It will not allocate beyond the next safe section until it arrives there. This is useful for bidirectional single track running. Any other positive number (in reality thats 1-150 as the create transit allows a max of 150 sections) allocate the specified number of sections a head.
        Returns:
        a new ActiveTrain or null on failure

      • allocateSection

        public AllocatedSection allocateSection​(AllocationRequest ar,
                                        Section ns)
        Allocates a Section to an Active Train according to the information in an AllocationRequest.

        If successful, returns an AllocatedSection and removes the AllocationRequest from the queue. If not successful, returns null and leaves the AllocationRequest in the queue.

        To be allocatable, a Section must be FREE and UNOCCUPIED. If a Section is OCCUPIED, the allocation is rejected unless the dispatcher chooses to override this restriction. To be allocatable, the Active Train must not be waiting for its start time. If the start time has not been reached, the allocation is rejected, unless the dispatcher chooses to override the start time.

        Parameters:
        ar - the request containing the section to allocate
        ns - the next section; use null to allow the next section to be automatically determined, if the next section is the last section, of if an extra section is being allocated
        Returns:
        the allocated section or null if not successful
