Collectible Card Game Headquarters

oskarolw, you will find additional info at Working out the multi-module maven setup.

Thanks, I can once again compile and run now. Removing trunk did the trick

I once again cannot compile no matter what. I get tons of errors most of which say something like:

Execution default-compile of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.1:compile failed. (org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.1:compile:default-compile:compile) pom.xml /forge-ai line 6 Maven Build Problem


I even tried running IntelliJ IDEA instead of Eclipse but I can't get that to compile either, there I got some kind of issue with Maven aswell. There are tons of errors here aswell but it seems that it won't accept my maven installation (which I think is included by default) since it sais like "No Maven installation found" even though I have all the functionality and could check out the project.

Today I had a similiar issue. Solved it by running "mvn install" from command line in the root folder. After I had clicked 'refresh' in eclipse context menu (right click on root project) the project agreed to compile and run from the named IDE.

Hey guys, I know I've been around forever, but I want to work on some card scripts and tokens. I don't want to mess with any Java, so which sections of http://www.slightlymagic.net/wiki/Forge ... he_project actually apply to me?

Hello Xitax, there have been several conversations about changing the card scripts for cards that make tokens. The idea being that we would have them point to specific card pictures. Mark has spent some time doing this for recent new sets but there is additional work that needs to be done to finish off this portion of the project.

Are you offering to help in this are?

If you are it would help if you had a dev system set up on your computer. I just checked and I see that you have commit privileges.

As the card scripts are changed we would also need to have properly named token pics moved to the cardforge site. I think that this would require an FTP app (Cyberduck might be a good choice) and the proper password to the cardforge site.

Yes, that's exactly what I wanted to do.

If you'd like, Xitax, I keep a current list of tokens in two versions -- with set information and without. Posted it here before, but it gets updated with each set. I also keep up-to-date list of HQ token pictures based on updating a file someone posted here a long time ago.

You should now have commit privileges to the Forge repo.

Do you have a dev systems set up on your computer?

If not, then follow the directions found on Forge:How to Get Started Developing Forge. And you should also read the messages located in the Working out the multi-module maven setup topic.

After you have imported the main trunk into Eclipse you will then want to use the

Code: Select all

File -> Import -> Maven: Existing Maven Projects

 
command and add the various modules into your local copy.

At this point the project should build. You should then be able to set up a run configuration and check to see that you can run Forge from within Eclipse.

If you need some help I am willing to assist.

Hello again, I will once again try to get my enviroment running!

It has worked before but keeps breaking, I have eclipse with maven and I can check out everything and also run the maven->update from gui, it does however give me tons of errors and refuses to compile or run. Mostly it just sais stuff can not be resolved so I'm guessing there is some issue with imports. Any ideas?

Also I have tried reading up on the Maven but could someone explain it like im 5? It's supposed to automate the project testing/setup/structure? Should I have the pom.xmls from the repo or should I delete them?

Try

Code: Select all

Project -> Clean… -> Clean all projects

 
I have had to do this on occasion when the project stops building.

If this does not work then

Code: Select all

Edit -> Delete -> Delete project contents on disk

 
This will delete the project from your workspace and from your HD. You should then follow the wiki instructions and

Code: Select all

File -> Import… -> SVN -> Checkout Projects from SVN

 
and make sure that you follow the wiki instructions. Then when this is finished,

Code: Select all

File -> Import -> Maven: Existing Maven Projects

 
and at the least select the forge-gui directory. At this point the project should build and you should be able to

Code: Select all

Run -> Run Configurations…

 
and set up a run config which will allow you to run Forge from within the Eclipse environment.

What helped in my case long ago:
make sure M2_HOME env. variable is set, ensure m2e is installed, then build from console (there was a command like "mvn install") Then open eclipse

I really appreciate you guys trying to help me

Anyway what I did now was to delete everything like Chris suggested and I then checked out everything under trunk. This seemed to work well enough and I don't get tons of errors anymore. It does not however, run.

When I tried to import from Maven I got a new version of forge-gui which had tons of errors. Do I have to go through Maven or is it enough to just check out from SVN?

I don't quite get how Run Configurations are supposed to work. I can not seem to run anything as Java but I have the options to run as Maven, that gives me some log-output which sais something like:
SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".

When you have tons (that is over a thousand) of errors, that means your workspace does not see maven's imports.

What was wrong in the state when you got no errors, but "it did not however, run."? How did you try to make it run?
