It is nice to separate out formatting/comment-only changes from substantive
changes - otherwise, they clutter up code that needs to be more carefully
reviewed.

[Chris S. <chr...@gm...>]

What do you mean by "recently opened games"?  In play by email, the program
appends a player name and timestamp to the filename.  Would you be able to
set it up to search the directories where games were previously saved, find
the most recent timestamped file with the appropriate base filename, and
list that?

Re: [Rails-devel] Corrections to Loading Game from Command Line

[Adam B. <ab...@o2...>]

    The imports are result of mishandling Eclipse. I am not used to it yet (and on the search how to switch short-cuts to Windows-style...) Sorry for that.
    I personaly do cosmetic changes if they make code styl consistent but its your call.

    Now I was thinking of a redesign of initial window. So that the application lists recently opened games for example. What do you think of it?

Hi Adam,

 

Thanks for your fix. I haved applied it, except:

- the removed space in GameSetupWindow: cosmetic only.

- the qualifier in java.lang.String, which is completely redundant (I have left in your two other qualifiers, though, which at least save an import.  But we normally don’t use any qualifiers).

- the unused import of InvocationTargetException.

Re: [Rails-devel] Development Environment

[Adam B. <ab...@o2...>]

    OK. I identified the error.
    The problem is with NDC. You use it to store game id or whatever you use 
then to query a map for GameManager. This structure is per-thread. If you 
load game after running application it is initialized in the AWT events 
thread (while acting on load game event) and so it later works well in other 
events.
    However if you load the game using command line argument NDC is 
initialized from the main thread and in events thread (used by File | Save) 
there is no knowledge about the id.
    By the way it seems like a mighty abuse of the object...

    I will try to fix that...

    I already added (locally on my machine) code responsible for setting
save directory if a game is opened from command line argument. This was not

problems with NPC.peek() returning an empty string rather then "01" in Save
action code which casues failure to finde GameManager instance. Strange as
it seems from my debuging that NPC.peek() ought to return "01" as it was
pushed there. Now I'm at looking into log4j to see what this actually does
and how should be used.

File|Save in Rails seems to work for everyone else.  But you can only save a
game after opening it. However, you seem to do it the other way around...?

    Just a quick note. It seems there is a bug. If a game is opened by 
giving it as an argument "File | Save" results in NullPointerException for 
GameManager.getInstance().

Not necessarily. You can change "New_configuration" to "Run Rails" or
whatever you like.

Maybe something is wrong with the classpath.
Does "Rails (default classpath)"appear under the classpath tab?
In the Eclipse Navigator view, does 'rails' (the top package) appear
immediately under the project root?

Sorry, I can't give precise and perfect instructions as I don't have these.
I'm afraid you'll have to gain some understanding of Eclipse yourself, as I
did (long ago, and I certainly don't remember all of it now).

I have that different (I use another location) but I suppose that shouldn't
make a difference.

My top line in the Navigator reads:
Rails 1448 [https://rails.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rails/trunk/18xx:
18xx.
If you have it different, you may have started on the wrong level.  Looks
like you should have taken trunk/18xx instead.

Re: [Rails-devel] Development Environment

[Adam B. <ab...@o2...>]

    Using "https://rails.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rails/trunk/18xx" 
instead of "https://rails.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rails/trunk" did the 
thing! Thanks!
    Now I will have a look into changes so to see whether my issues were 
solved. Do you have any pending tasks?

Not necessarily. You can change "New_configuration" to "Run Rails" or 
whatever you like.

Maybe something is wrong with the classpath.
Does "Rails (default classpath)"appear under the classpath tab?
In the Eclipse Navigator view, does 'rails' (the top package) appear 
immediately under the project root?

Sorry, I can't give precise and perfect instructions as I don't have these. 
I'm afraid you'll have to gain some understanding of Eclipse yourself, as I 
did (long ago, and I certainly don't remember all of it now).

I have that different (I use another location) but I suppose that shouldn't 
make a difference.

My top line in the Navigator reads:
Rails 1448 [https://rails.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rails/trunk/18xx: 
18xx.
If you have it different, you may have started on the wrong level.  Looks 
like you should have taken trunk/18xx instead.

Re: [Rails-devel] Development Environment

[Adam B. <ab...@o2...>]

    Didn't help. In my case there was no "Rails" in configuration name 
instead there was generic "New_configuration" or something like that. But 
this is not important (however it suggests that I have done soemthing 
incorrectly).
    The Main tab asks for Project (empty for me; clicking Browse shows empty 
list; I left this empty) and Main class (is entered rails.util.RunGame 
however pressing Search shows an empty list). After that trying to run this 
results in a message that class rails.util.RunGame could not be found.

    So once again how do you initialize the workspace.
    After installing Eclipse and setting up Subclips (in SVN Repositories I 
have added "https://rails.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rails") I opened 
Eclipse. It asked for workspace so I went with the default one. Then I chose 
from menu File item Import, then SVN / Checkout Projects from SVN. There I 
chose the existing rails repository. From the repository I chose "trunk". 
Then instead of "Check out as a project configured using the New Project 
Wizard" I chose "Check out as a project in workspace" and left the default 
project name (being "trunk"). Then Finish.
    So I guess it is not the proper way.

    I use new Eclipse 3.6.1. Classic gener with only Subclipse added.

Onderwerp: Re: [Rails-devel] Development Environment

    OK. I have downloaded Eclipse and chose Subclipse as SVN manager. I did 
have some problems as I am using 64-bit Windows 7 and apparently Subclips 
has issues with 64-bit systems. However it seems to work now as I am able to 
download code from within the Eclipse.

EV: I also had problems with Subclipse on my new 64-bit Windows-7 PC and 
have changed to Subversive.  But I haven't yet done anything substantial on 
that new machine yet.

    Yet I would gladly hear some more advice on configuring Eclipse. Mere 
File | Import | SVN | Checkout from SVN does not seem to be enough. I sure 
do get the trunk however as this is not a project so I'm unable to run it 
(particularly in debug mode as this is what I truly wish to do). How do you 
do it? Sorry for such noob questions but I have been using Eclipse only for 
a short time around 5 years ago (I'm Windows/Visual Studio/C++ & somewhat C# 
developer).
    Thanks in advance!

EV: I suppose what you need to do is create a Run Configuration.

Run (or the middle green button on the 2nd row)  | Run Configurations...  | 
New (button), then:
- in the Main tab, enter the run name (I found Rails pre-filled) and the 
main class name: rails.test.GameTest  (or the newer and perhaps better 
rails.util.RunGame).
- in the Arguments tab, enter any VM arguments that you want the program to 
pick up as System properties. I'm using:
-Dlog4j.configuration=my_my.properties -DRevenueCalculation=Suggest -Dsettings.directory=../save/settings

Running this configuration starts Rails under Eclipse.

I hope this helps.
Erik.

As and when there are enough changes to warrant a new release.  Things 
aren't really that solidly controlled around here since everyone's

change log I would think once Erik is comfortable with his window position

Aan: Development list for Rails: an 18xx game
Onderwerp: Re: [Rails-devel] Development Environment

    OK. I have downloaded Eclipse and chose Subclipse as SVN manager. I did have some problems as I am using 64-bit Windows 7 and apparently Subclips has issues with 64-bit systems. However it seems to work now as I am able to download code from within the Eclipse.

EV: I also had problems with Subclipse on my new 64-bit Windows-7 PC and have changed to Subversive.  But I haven't yet done anything substantial on that new machine yet.

    Yet I would gladly hear some more advice on configuring Eclipse. Mere File | Import | SVN | Checkout from SVN does not seem to be enough. I sure do get the trunk however as this is not a project so I'm unable to run it (particularly in debug mode as this is what I truly wish to do). How do you do it? Sorry for such noob questions but I have been using Eclipse only for a short time around 5 years ago (I'm Windows/Visual Studio/C++ & somewhat C# developer).
    Thanks in advance!

EV: I suppose what you need to do is create a Run Configuration. 

Run (or the middle green button on the 2nd row)  | Run Configurations...  | New (button), then:
- in the Main tab, enter the run name (I found Rails pre-filled) and the main class name: rails.test.GameTest  (or the newer and perhaps better rails.util.RunGame).
- in the Arguments tab, enter any VM arguments that you want the program to pick up as System properties. I'm using:
-Dlog4j.configuration=my_my.properties -DRevenueCalculation=Suggest -Dsettings.directory=../save/settings

Running this configuration starts Rails under Eclipse.

I hope this helps.
Erik.

Re: [Rails-devel] Development Environment

[Erik V. <eri...@xs...>]

I'm happy enough with the current window position fixation code, but the real question is if you all are. 

Since the 1.4 release not much else has changed, apart from a number of fixes (I have composed a partial change list in the wiki on the Sourceforge project page).
However, I don't expect to be able to do any significant work until April or May, apart from the occasional bug fix.
So perhaps it is a good idea to wrap it all up in a new release 1.4.1, so you can all enjoy it and/or report new bugs :-)

Brett, what do you think?

    I use 1.4 for gaming and have downloaded the code just recently.
    When do you expect to deliver current code as new version?

You will (hopefully) find that the command line issues are mostly

I use Eclipse and just created a new project via checkout from SVN.

You will (hopefully) find that the command line issues are mostly
fixed in the current development build as we noticed issues with this
aspect a few months ago and I think they are mostly all fixed now.
However, any submissions will I'm sure be gratefully received :)

[Rails-devel] Development Environment

[<ab...@o2...>]

    What development environment (IDE) do you use while making Rails? (If any at all...)
    It seems to me there are some project files or something similar but I wasn’t able to recognize what application uses them.

    I ask this question as I wanted to look into code and possibly change some things (at least for me) as while playing we noticed few annoying issues. (The application does not have recently opened files list, it seems also it does not work well if run using a batch command from other folder then the application itself to name a few.)

Onderwerp: Re: [Rails-devel] Rails 1.4 Creating games

 

I've got svn with eclipse. I'm not sure how to compile it after making
changes or what steps I should do with it.

 

EV: I always set Eclipse to autocompile on save.

 

Also I've been editing the XML files to create new games. I'm having some
major bugs and/or issues.

 

When I copy a game then I can only use tiles from the game I copied. Once I
try putting in a tile from a different game then my tile manifest will show
zero tiles available and I can't start public companies on that tile if it's
a city tile. Even when I edit tiles.xml file it won't show the changes.

 

EV: You need to change both Tiles.xml and TileSet.xml. Best is to start with
the latter, and then fill the game-specific Tiles.xml with copies of the
corresponding  tile definitions  from the generic Tiles.xml (under tiles).
You can also generate Tiles.xml from TileSet.xml with class
tools.MakeGameTileSets.  Or I can do that for you, as well as create any new
tiles that are not yet included  in the generic Tiles.xml.

 

I think the problem is in the game.xml file. When I copy over an existing
game like 1830 and then change the game name to something like 18Test the
game won't start up and it errors out. If I keep it at 1830 but change the
gamelist.xml file then it shows up in the menu as 18Test but with the
problems above. 

 

EV: You need to do both.

 

I guess the question is how do I start a game from scratch? And if this
isn't possible how do I pull in tiles from other games if I copy a game
over? This has been very frustrating.

Re: [Rails-devel] Rails 1.4 Creating games

[brett l. <bre...@gm...>]

Charles -

Welcome to the list!

Creating games is a combination of configuration and coding, depending
on what the game entails.

The map, stock market, and other basic details are configured via XML
files. For games that simply re-use the rules of existing, already
implemented games, it's fairly easy to write-up the XML, drop it into
the correct locations, updating the master game lists, and have Rails
begin attempting to play a new game.

The game rules, if they deviate from already implemented game rules,
will require additional coding to implement those special cases. This
requires extending the game code, which is written in Java.

Your first steps should be to set up your IDE (most of us use
Eclipse), check out the code from SVN, and begin familiarizing
yourself with the code base as well as looking through the mailing
list archives.

If you have any questions (or patches you'd like applied to SVN), feel
free to post them to the list. :-)

[Rails-devel] Rails 1.4 Creating games

[Charles S. <men...@gm...>]

I've been using Rails to run different 18xx games that I have. However there
are a few that aren't even in the Rails program but would like to play using
it. Once our group started using Rails we have a hard time trying to run one
without, it just saves a lot of time and calculations.

I'm looking into creating the game files for Rails to use for the games it
doesn't currently have. I'm also looking at creating my own 18xx to be used
in Rails. I was wondering how would I do this? I'm not a stranger to basic
programming, html, etc. so the technical learning curve isn't an issue (that
and I'm a quick learner).

OK, thanks.
I have added Windows settings and Change log pages (the latter still pretty
empty).

Another thing that we urgently need is a Change Log, so we can make better
Release Notes for future Rails versions.
Perhaps we could also do that in the Wiki.
Per change item I would suggest to include:
- date,
- author,
- SVN revision numbers (useful though not essential),
- the bug report/feature request number (if applicable),
- description of the change,
- optionally the main source file(s) affected (not necessary for
consequential effects such as caused by method name changes etc.)

It doesn't need to be perfect, but something is better than nothing.
