<kymara> so do you have any idea how i'd run teh server from eclipse? [10:42]
# First of all open the view called Package Explorer.
<durkham> no not really, mine wont run because of that mysql problem :)

<kymara> when one does ant dist for example you get a zip folder in

stendhal/build which i unzip in another folder [10:43]
# make sure that the marauroa.ini is in your stendhal project folder.
<kymara> but i better not run that itn eclipse, that's froman old version
# right click on your project folder and select "Properties" in the context menu.
<durkham> how do you start the server normally? [10:44]
# then select "Java Build Path" on the left side of the dialog box.
<kymara> i do ant dist and that makes a zipped file inside stendhal/build/

Revision as of 14:48, 22 March 2007

First Steps

  1. First of all open the view called Package Explorer.
  2. Create new 'Java Project'
  3. Get stendhal from CVS.
  4. make sure that the marauroa.ini is in your stendhal project folder.
  5. right click on your project folder and select "Properties" in the context menu.
  6. then select "Java Build Path" on the left side of the dialog box.
source folder: stendhal/src					
default output folder: stendhal/classes
On the "library" tab: [Add jars] and select all the files in stendhal/lib

Eclipse should be able to compile the source code now. There should be a little yellow sign before your project folder but not red X. The package explorer should now display the "src" folder directly below the root folder with a different icon, the icon is like a small grid.

Trouble Shooting

menu Windows | Preferences | Java | Installed JREs

  • there should be at least one entry with a valid JAVA_HOME path (make it so so JDK compliance is 5.0  ?)

If you happen to get this: The method getLayerVector() is undefined for the type MapMapConverter.javastendhal/src/games/stendhal/toolsline 111

  • please right click your project folder again --> properties -> java build path.
  • in the [source] tab there should only be stendhal/src, so remove stendhal/tiled/src

(This entry has higher priority than the tiled.jar in the libs folder but this code is highly outdated)

To make it run the server

  • In the toolbar there is a green icon which looks like a bug.
there is a little black arrow on the right side of it.
  • This will open a menu, please choose "Debug..."
  • Then in the dialog select "Java Application" and click on the "new"

icon in the top left corner. 

 Name: StendhalServer
 Main class: marauroa.server.marauroad
 [x] include libaries when searching for the main class
on the [Arguments] tab:
Program arguments: -c marauroa.ini -l
 on the [Classpath] tab:
 button "Advanced"					       
(*) add folder | OK
 and select the root folder
  • button [Debug]

And then the server should be started. 'Note: you may need to 'add external jars' and add your mysql jar from your ant build type server'

To make the client run

  1. Open games.stendhal.client.update.Starter.java in the editor
  2. then again the small black arror on the right side ofthe green bug.
  3. java application -> new-icon, and it should be prefilled.
  4. for the client the [Classpath] advanced root folder thingy is needed as well.

yay shiny new client, shiny server
