Print/Log function (Easy)

Add a print/log function to replace the currently used print. The function should be able to take different levels of message :

• Error : a serious problem
• Warning : something unexpected occured but hopefully won’t prevent the server from working
• Info : not so important
• Debug : debug info, like printing the content of the server, etc…

Log to a file or to stderr or to stdout

Arguments to the program (Easy)

The program should be able to take arguments (see man (3) getopt)

• define the log level
• output to a given file
• define a config file to read from
• print version and info
• … ?

Support Big Endian architectures

Use the macros present in compat.h to

• transform defined constants to little endian
• transform variables to little endian (16 and 32 bit integers) before they are put into packets
• transform variables from little endian when getting them from a packet

Find a platform to debug on (PowerPC, Sparc in qemu?)

Packet scheduler

• Create a packet scheduler (in a thread) that handles
• Create a queue per player
• Replace the send_to function to put in the queue
• Handle resending
