<h1>JMRI: Applications</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>JMRI provides several applications that are optimized for specific purposes. You can of
|
|
course also <a href="../doc/Technical/index.shtml#writecode">write your own</a>.</p>

<h2 id="addapp">Additional Applications with JMRI Connections...</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Hobbyists have created applications that work with JMRI to provide extra capabilities. In
|
|
addition, some commercial vendors have created applications that work with, add data to, or
|
|
take data from JMRI</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>See the <a href=
|
|
"../../../../community/connections/CommunityConnectionsIndex.shtml">community/connections
|
|
directory</a> for a list and links. New applications can be added at any time!</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="jythonapp">Jython Applications for JMRI...</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Some JMRI users have implemented sophisticated capabilities using the <a href=
|
|
"../tools/scripting/index.shtml">JMRI jython scripting facilities.</a> These are listed
|
|
<a href="../tools/scripting/JythonApps.shtml">here</a>.</p>

|
<h2>JMRI Features and Tools</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>JMRI software consists of a large library of functions divided into</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>a system-specific part, with many subparts, each of which communicates with one
|
|
supported hardware system, like C/MRI, in a system specific way, and</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>a system-independent part where most of the features of JMRI are implemented.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>So, for example, if the user does something (perhaps setting a route) to cause JMRI to
|
|
throw a Turnout (track switch), that user action will occur in the system-independent part of
|
|
the software, and then JMRI will send out the actual command via the system-dependent part
|
|
appropriate to the hardware system controlling the particular Turnout thrown. JMRI is
|
|
designed so that features are implemented in the system-independent part as much as possible,
|
|
with JMRI using system-dependent subparts only when really necessary. Access to
|
|
system-independent features is via the main JMRI menus, such as the Tools menu.</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>You can find additional information about each of the JMRI "common" tools by clicking
|
|
through the links in the sidebar or the <a href="../tools/index.shtml">tools index
|
|
page.</a>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>There are many <a href="../tools/index.shtml#systemSpecificTools">system-specific
|
|
tools</a> that are available within the JMRI applications. You can find additional
|
|
information about each by clicking through the links in the <a href=
|
|
"../tools/index.shtml#systemSpecificTools">system-specific tools index page</a>. The tools
|
|
themselves are invoked from their own menu pulldowns within the JMRI applications when you
|
|
have JMRI configured for each specific System Connection.
