• Java Source Code - Casino Blackjack v1.02 [zip]
• MySQL Code - Casino Blackjack v1.02 [zip]

Instructions for v1.01

Installing & Executing:

• 1) Unzip file to any directory (eg: C:/blackjack/)
• 2) Load project with BlueJ (preferably version 1.2.1. but any version should work).
• 3) Open Consts class and change the static value of IMAGE_DIR_PATH to the absolute path of the images.
• 4) Re-compile.
• 5) Install MYSQL and JDBC Drivers for mysql.
• 6) At the command prompt run mysql then use: source group53.sql (this may need editing depending on database access privileges). This file contains comments to aid installing.
• 7) Execute Login class in BlueJ (right click “void main(String args[])”).
  • NOTE: if it crashes at this point, chances are IMAGE_DIR_PATH is wrong. Contact (07)40553061 if any problems.
• 8) Mysql / client-server testing program is in separate testing directory and is run by starting the Server class then the Client class.

Using Game Code:

• 1) Login
• 2) Your player is the rightmost one – make a bet and play blackjack against the house.
• 3) Most gameplay buttons are not yet implemented.
• 4) Notice the other players at the table don’t exist, and since they don’t exist their moves should time out.
• 5) Click the close window icon [X] to exit.

Set of features implemented in v1.01:

• To date we have been working on a single standalone program which was specifically designed so it would be easy to break apart into two separate programs (client and server) during the next phase of the assignment.
• The interface is fairly accurate to what the client side will see, apart from a few testing buttons and a few omissions.
  • That chat feature has not been implemented yet.
  • NOTE: The finished server application will have no graphical interface.
