To compile Stendhal you will need:
To compile Stendhal you will need:
* module stendhal<br>http://arianne.sourceforge.net/?arianne_url=games/game_stendhal
* stendhal source as a stendhal-''version''-src.tar.gz <br>http://arianne.sourceforge.net/?arianne_url=games/game_stendhal#downloads
* Java SDK 1.5<br>http://java.sun.com ''or higher''

You can download a compiled marauroa file but Stendhal CVS occasionally requires Marauroa CVS as well.


We do not include dependencies in the source download, to keep the size small. They are in CVS, however, and you can download them via the CVS webfrontend at http://arianne.cvs.sourceforge.net/arianne/stendhal/libs/

Second you need to compile successfully Marauroa using the compile task.


Then unpack the stendhal source gzip.
To build Stendhal first make sure you have the JAR files in the correct place.

<pre>
<pre>
cd path/to/stendhal
cd path/to/stendhal source
cd ..
mkdir libs
cd stendhal
cd stendhal
</pre>
</pre>


Now add any missing dependencies to the ''lib'' folder: ''TODO: check what these are''
Make sure you remove the version number from name or that you create links to the real file without any version number.

Now just write:
