Re: Game server - two player board game [OT]

[Jason Pyeron <ja...@pyeron.com>]

Mark,

This is really off topic, but here it goes.

You have two tasks at hand:

1: specify / create backend [business] logic
2: specify / create frontend UI

If you design the backend in a bean architecture, the 
threading/persistance issues should be non-existant or obvious at least.

as far as security you will have to define how much is enough.

for mild paranoia:

 ssl login page
 hashed passwords used
 one login at a time allowed

if you would like more on architecture, please mail me off list.

Hi, I'm using Tomcat 4.1 to set up a game server for the two player board game, Tanbo (similar to Go). Basically, I will be providing one board and a waiting list, and a chat.

I need advice on how to set up the object architecture. I'm considering using an int array to represent the board. And possibly a separate class to evaluate legal moves.

I need advice on security, persistence, thread safety and anything else that I might need to know to make this a successful web site (tanbo.com).

Thanks in advance.
