WARTBED |
WARTBED uses a strict client-server architecture, where even local games are clients to a game server.
A network system should be designed. For this suitable libraries should be located and existing projects should be investigated
- Libraries
- The Boost::ASIO cross-platform C++ library for network and low-level I/O programming. ASIO seems scheduled for the C++ TR2, and will likely be part of the next language revision following C++0x.
- ACE (The ADAPTIVE Communication Environment) is a high-efficiency OO network programming toolkit in C++
- memcached is a distributed memory object caching system
- Existing game projects to study
- Glest
- Spring -- There is a lobby for Spring (SpringLobby) done in wxWidgets that might be of use.
- The open and free MANGOS World of Warcraft server project could provide good inspiration (uses ACE).
