QDmx

QDmx is a simple DMX transport layer. The goal is to provide a cross-platform system to output and input DMX data.

QDmx use a client-server architecture. The server is used to manage devices and low-level features. Client applications use a simple high-level API to send instructions and DMX data to server. Client/Server communication can be achieved using TCP/IP or local sockets (under Unix systems only).

This architecture allow applications to be in any programming language. To use QDmx, an application has simply to implements QDmx protocol or to use a library. As now, library is only available for Java and Qt 4.5.

Provided library include some convenience features to start server if required.
