Linux Air Combat Server Files

This is the source code for the server component of the Linux Air Combat software suite. You will need to de-archive it according to longstanding unix/linux norms.

The de-archived results will include a set of files like THIS example:


 bin (This is a folder that will contain the executable after compilation and linking.)
 ChangeLog.txt (This shows the comprehensive development history of every version ever published.)
 ClientComponents (A source code sub-folder)
 compile.sh* (A shell script that will compile the source code)
 DebugLevels.h (A source code file)
 LacServer90.cbp (A "Codeblocks Project" file for those that prefer to use the well-known "CodeBlocks" development GUI
 LacServer90.depend (A "Codeblocks Project management file not needed by those NOT using CodeBlocks)
 LacServer90.layout (A "Codeblocks Project management file not needed by those NOT using CodeBlocks)
 LogFiles (A sub folder for convenient storage of any log files that you may want to store in the future)
 main.cpp (The main source code file, written in c++)
 obj (A sub-folder for object files generated when the source code is compiled)

If you just want to compile the current source code without a fancy, graphical IDE (Integrated Development Engivonment), you can just run the "compile.sh" shell script. If your desktop Linux system is configured with the basic, usual, and customary gcc compiler and associated, standard suite of development tools according to longstanding LINUX norms, the source code will be compiled and will produce a new "LacServer90" executable in the bin/Debug subfolder within a few seconds.

On the other hand, if you want to do some serious development work, we recommend that you also install the free, well-known "CodeBlocks" Integrated Development Environment, and drive your project by designating the "LacServer.cbp" Codeblocks Project file for compilation.
