#pentedb

A powerful game analyzer, database and AI for the board game Pente.

It's functional and mostly complete but could use some work.

Inspired from my work on Pente.org

Building instructions

Prerequisites

1. Install Java 6 or above.
2. Install ant version 1.7
3. If you need to update the windows installers, install NSIS version 2.46
4. If you need to update the C++ AI code and you are on windows, install mingw-w64

Note: If you want to compile for a 64-bit system then choose the x86_64 installation If you want to compile for a 32-bit system then choose the i686 installation

Build java

Run "ant" from command line in the build directory Output will be a file db2.jar in the build directory

Build C++ AI code

1. Run mingw-w64.bat
2. Go to the mmai or mmai64 directory
3. For 64bit dll run g++ -m64 -D_JNI_IMPLEMENTATION_ -static -Wl,--kill-at -I"C:<path to your jdk>\include" -I"C:<path to your jdk>\include\win32" -shared CPoint.c Ai.cpp AiWrapper.cpp -o Ai.dll Output is the file Ai.dll
4. For 32bit dll run g++ -m32 -D_JNI_IMPLEMENTATION_ -static -Wl,--kill-at -I"C:<path to your jdk>\include" -I"C:<path to your jdk>\include\win32" -shared CPoint.c Ai.cpp AiWrapper.cpp -o Ai.dll Output is the file Ai.dll

Build windows installers

1. Edit the nsi files and change this line to point to the root of your pentedb source files !define SRC_DIR "C:\projects\pentedb_src"

2. Run the NSIS program to compile the executables

Output is pentedb.exe and pentedb-install.exe

Tests

Yeah...those would be nice to have

TODO

• Find my old notes and add things to the TODO list ;)
• Automate the building process more
• Switch from ant to maven?
• Package for linux, OSX
