Guides / Development workflow (hot deploy)
« Last post by ruke on October 24, 2017, 04:17:12 PM »Note: I wrote this guide for l2jserver, but it should work the same for Frozen. Let me know if you run into issues.
Hi, I just recently started working on L2J and while I was implementing a few custom features in the server I found the development workflow quite awful since I had to make quite a lot of steps to actually see my changes: change the code -> compile -> update files -> shutdown server -> start server -> login again -> see the changes in game.
So, I wanted a change, I only wanted to follow these steps: change code -> compile -> see changes in game. And luckily I was able to accomplish it.
What do you need?
- A working server
- The sources of the l2jserver/frozen (obviously)
Steps
1 - In your source folder, you need the gameserver/config and gameserver/data folders from YOUR WORKING SERVER. You can do this by copying the folders or create a symbolic link so any changes you made to those folders are reflected without having to copy/paste again.
2 - Download DCEVM (light) for Java 8u144 (build 2)
3 - Download HotswapAgent
4 - Download JDK 8u144
5 - Install JDK 8
6 - Open a command line with administrator permissions:
7 - In your command line, go to the folder where you downloaded DCEVM (light) for Java 8u144 (build 2) and run it:
8 - Once the application opens, select your JDK 8 and click Install DCEVM as altjvm:
Perfect, almost done!
9 - Open your IDE, and go to the Run configurations
10 - Complete with the following:
Name: GameServer Hotswap
Main class: net.sf.l2j.gameserver.GameServer (if you cannot find it, try searching for gameServer.GamesServer)
VM Options: -XXaltjvm=dcevm -javaagent:PATH\TO\hotswap-agent.jar
JRE: Make sure you have selected JDK 1.8.0.144
11 - Go to your gameServer.GameServer class, and make sure the logs line are commented:
12 - Start your loginServer as usual.
13 - Go to your IDE, and run GameServer Hotswap (from step 10)
14 - Your server should be up, try login with a character.
15 - If you succeed, perfect, now the exciting part, let's make a tiny change. Go to java/net/sf/l2j/gameserver/clientpackets/EnterWorld.java class and add this line to runImpl method, in the line 108:
16 - Save the file, and rebuild the project:
You should have a message that a class was updated.
Great, our change is already on, go to your server, login with a character and:
Did you notice? no downtime!
Hope it helps. Happy to help if anyone cannot do it.
Have a good day.

Latest News / News about the project 24/10/2017
« Last post by Nefer on October 24, 2017, 10:55:27 AM »Hello members,
as you could see we were inactive for a long time in the forum. You do not have to worry we're always working on the backs to get a great pack for our users.
The BETA version has been released and some "Supporters" are testing it. If all goes well we can finally release the official version.
We still didn't decide the final price, but the packages will be these:
* Compiled version
* Compiled version + source
* Monthly payment for new updates
You can decide to buy only the compiled or the compiled+source and dont take the Monthly payment subscription for new updates. You can decided it.
Important thing: ALL the exploit fix will always be free even if you do not take the monthly payment updates.
I hope that on the next two weeks we will have a good result to be able to release a stable pack.
I remember the pack is testable through the Test Server online 24/24 and 7/7:
https://www.l2jfrozen.com/forum/index.php?topic=6.0
All bugs must be reported on official bug report system:
http://server.l2jfrozen.com/bugreport/my_view_page.php
Still thanks for your confidence, you will not be disappointed.
Greetings,
Nefer
