World-Wide-Mind

w2mind.computing.dcu.ie -> challenge -> submitting a mind

Once a mind has been developed it can be put online for use by others. Once online, each time it is run using the client, its score will be recorded in the scoreboard.

The following are the steps to be followed in submitting your mind:

1. Ensure that all extra classes you created implement java.io.Serializable, and that none of them access the disk or perform anything else that would cause a security violation.

2. Create a jar file containing all the new java files you created. The command to be used is as follows (assuming you named your mind using a random name, and are in the TYRRELL directory, as described earlier):

• jar cvf COLEARY878382024.jar *.class

Note, you MUST name the Jar file with the same name as the Java mind.

3. e-mail the Jar file to Ciaran.OLeary@comp.dit.ie with MINDSUBMIT as the subject. The mind will be put online as soon as possible following this. The URL of the mind will be retreivable from the scoreboard. PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY PRINT STATEMENTS IN YOUR CODE WHEN SUBMITTING IT.
