Build scripts?

[refi64]

Took me a bit to realize that all the hunters had to be linked together, and I still can't figure out which class to run. A Gradle build script or at least a shell script would be very nice (and preferably before The Protect our Wumpuses Act is passed)!

I'm not that familiar with Gradle, but I've added you as a collaborator if you want to implement it yourself. You should run the MetaManager class after adding an instance of your hunter to the hunters linkedlist, and I've updated the readme to say this as well. Thanks for catching that!

[refi64]

@cain93 Well, I don't like Gradle. Or Java. In fact, I don't even know Gradle. I just figured it seemed like you were good at Java and therefore knew how to implement one. :)

I can take a stab at it, though.

[CaseCal]

Haha I don't really know Gradle either, I always thought it was more for corporate development and stuff :P

[CaseCal]

Personally, I would just install and use Eclipse

@cain93 Ugh...never got it to work. These are the commands I'm running:

/usr/bin/javac -d build/Hunters -verbose Hunters/RandomHunter.java
/usr/bin/javac -d build/Hunters -verbose Hunters/ElmerFudd.java
...
cd build

cd ..
/usr/bin/java -cp build/Mechanics.jar Mechanics.MetaManager

(of course, I'm not typing these by hand; they were run by a build system)

And I'm getting:

Error: Could not find or load main class Mechanics.MetaManager

Damn, I hate Java...

[CaseCal]

You probably don't need to be building a jar, just compile each java file, then run MetaManager

[CaseCal]

If you put them all in a single src file and create a separate build folder, you should be able to just say
javac -sourcepath src -d build src/*/.java
