Subject: [CF-Devel] New Developer

Hi,

I'm Sebastien Bracquemont , i'm french.

I had a project for doing a Generic ,Web technology Based ,Rogue 
Like
with pluggable data representation. (2D,Isometric , "Dungeon 
Master"
pseudo 3D)

I was contacted by Michael Toennies to do some graphics but my 
real
skills are in the Software Engeneering Domain.(even if i can indeed 
do
some graphics)

So, i proposed Michael to help you on CF ,by doing a Java Based
Client.

By now, the main need is to do a efficient and complete Map Editor.

I Accept the challenge to do it in Java.

I've got several interesting propositions for both the Server,The
Client and the Protocol.

I think one of the biggest lack on this project is a really well done
architecture description document (with a lot of figures explaining
the role of each logical component (maps, tiles, server ,client , data
flows))

I think it will help everybody to have it (me first).

By then , i think i can help you concerning modelization issues.

For the Editor, i did download the CF Java editor and the client.

I'll work as often as i can on this very good project.

See ya Soon.

Sebastien.

My note isn't strictly about CF but rather about how to make and 
keep the development of the Java client as clear and 
understandable as possible. I presently use Together Control 
Center to build Java programs with good documentation. It is a tool 
letting to develop your application in a top-down fashion using UML 
diagrams. It allow also reverse engineerng so you can take your 
source code, import it into Together and let it generate class 
diagrams. It build automatically the program and its associated 
documentation using Javadoc or other built-in generators. It is fully 
customizable and free (in fact partially but Fully free for academic 
people(me)). You can download it at togethersoft.com It work also 
with CVS.
