        public int getBitFromSystemName​(java.lang.String systemName)
        Get the bit address from the system name.
        Parameters:

      • allowMultipleAdditions

        public boolean allowMultipleAdditions​(@Nonnull
                                              java.lang.String systemName)
        A method that determines if it is possible to add a range of lights in numerical order eg 11 thru 18, primarily used to show/not show the add range box in the add Light window
        Parameters:
        systemName - the system name to check against; appears to be ignored in all implementations
        Returns:
        true if possible; false otherwise
      • validateSystemNameFormat

        @Nonnull
        public java.lang.String validateSystemNameFormat​(@Nonnull
                                                         java.lang.String name,
                                                         @Nonnull
                                                         java.util.Locale locale)
        Validate the format of name, returning it unchanged if valid.

        Although further restrictions may be added by system-specific implementations, at a minimum, the implementation must consider a name that does not start with the System Name prefix for this manager to be invalid, and must consider a name that is the same as the System Name prefix to be invalid.

        Overriding implementations may rely on Manager.validSystemNameFormat(java.lang.String), however they must provide an actionable message in the thrown exception if that method does not return Manager.NameValidity.VALID. When overriding implementations of this method rely on validSystemNameFormat(), implementations of that method must not throw an exception, log an error, or otherwise disrupt the user.

        Parameters:
        name - the system name to validate
        locale - the locale for a localized exception; this is needed for the JMRI web server, which supports multiple locales
        Returns:
        the unchanged value of the name parameter
      • validSystemNameConfig

        public boolean validSystemNameConfig​(@Nonnull
                                             java.lang.String systemName)
        Public method to validate system name for configuration.
        Parameters:
        systemName - the system name
        Returns:
        'true' if system name has a valid meaning in current configuration, else returns 'false'. For now, this method always returns 'true'; it is needed for the Abstract Light class.
