Detailed Description
Common functions for interfacing a game server and GGZ.
This file contains all libggzmod functions used by game servers to
interface with GGZ (and vice versa). Just include ggzmod.h and make
sure your program is linked with libggzmod. Then use the functions
below as appropriate.
GGZmod currently provides an event-driven interface. Data from
communication sockets is read in by the library, and a handler function
(registered as a callback) is invoked to handle any events. The calling
program should not read/write data from/to the GGZ socket unless it
really knows what it is doing.
That this does not apply to the client sockets: ggzmod provides one
file desriptor for communicating (TCP) to each client. If data is ready
to be read by one of these file descriptors ggzmod may invoke the
appropriate handler (see below), but will never actually read any data.
For more information, see the documentation at http://ggz.sf.net/.
Typedef Documentation
typedef struct GGZMod GGZMod
A GGZmod object, used for tracking a ggz<->table connection.
A game client should track a pointer to a GGZMod object; it contains
all the state information for communicating with GGZ. The GGZ client
will track one such object for every game table that is running.
typedef void(* GGZModHandler)(GGZMod *mod, GGZModEvent e, const void *data)
Event handler prototype.
A function of this type will be called to handle a ggzmod event.
Parameters:
mod The ggzmod state object.
e The event that has occured.
data Pointer to additional data for the event. The additional data
will be of the following form:
· GGZMOD_EVENT_STATE: The old state (GGZModState*)
· GGZMOD_EVENT_SERVER: The fd of the server connection (int*)
· GGZMOD_EVENT_PLAYER: The old player data (int[2])
· GGZMOD_EVENT_SEAT: The old seat (GGZSeat*)
· GGZMOD_EVENT_SPECTATOR_SEAT: The old seat (GGZSpectatorSeat*)
· GGZMOD_EVENT_ERROR: An error string (char*)
Enumeration Type Documentation
enum GGZModEvent
Callback events.
Each of these is a possible GGZmod event. For each event, the table may
register a handler with GGZmod to handle that event.
See also:
GGZModHandler
ggzmod_set_handler
Enumeration values:
GGZMOD_EVENT_STATE
Module status changed This event occurs when the game’s status
changes. The old state (a GGZModState*) is passed as the event’s
data.
See also:
GGZModState
GGZMOD_EVENT_SERVER
A new server connection has been made This event occurs when a
new connection to the game server has been made. The fd is
passed as the event’s data.
GGZMOD_EVENT_PLAYER
The player’s seat status has changed.
This event occurs when the player’s seat status changes; i.e. he
changes seats or starts/stops spectating. The event data is a int[2]
pair consisting of the old {is_spectator, seat_num}.
GGZMOD_EVENT_SEAT
A seat change.
This event occurs when a seat change occurs. The old seat (a GGZSeat*)
is passed as the event’s data. The seat information will be updated
before the event is invoked.
GGZMOD_EVENT_SPECTATOR_SEAT
A spectator seat change.
This event occurs when a spectator seat change occurs. The old
spectator (a GGZSpectator*) is passed as the event’s data. The
spectator information will be updated before the event is invoked.
GGZMOD_EVENT_CHAT
A chat message event.
This event occurs when we receive a chat. The chat may have originated
in another game client or from the GGZ client; in either case it will
be routed to us. The chat information (a GGZChat*) is passed as the
event’s data. Note that the chat may originate with a player or a
spectator, and they may have changed seats or left the table by the
time it gets to us.
GGZMOD_EVENT_STATS
A player’s stats have been updated.
See also:
ggzmod_player_get_record
ggzmod_player_get_rating
ggzmod_player_get_ranking
ggzmod_player_get_highscore
Parameters:
data The name of the player whose stats have changed.
GGZMOD_EVENT_ERROR
An error has occurred This event occurs when a GGZMod error has
occurred. An error message (a char*) will be passed as the
event’s data. GGZMod may attempt to recover from the error, but
it is not guaranteed that the GGZ connection will continue to
work after an error has happened.
enum GGZModState
Table states.
Each table has a current ’state’ that is tracked by ggzmod. First the
table is executed and begins running. Then it receives a launch event
from GGZ and begins waiting for players. At some point a game will be
started and played at the table, after which it may return to waiting.
Eventually the table will probably halt and then the program will exit.
More specifically, the game is in the CREATED state when it is first
executed. It moves to the CONNECTED state after GGZ first communicates
with it, and to WAITING after the connection is established with the
game server. After this, the game server may use ggzmod_set_state to
change between WAITING, PLAYING, and DONE states. A WAITING game is
considered waiting for players (or whatever), while a PLAYING game is
actively being played (this information may be, but currently is not,
propogated back to GGZ for display purposes). Once the state is changed
to DONE, the table is considered dead and will exit shortly thereafter
(ggzmod_loop will stop looping, etc.) (see the kill_on_exit game
option).
Each time the game state changes, a GGZMOD_EVENT_STATE event will be
propogated to the game server.
Enumeration values:
GGZMOD_STATE_CREATED
Initial state. The game starts out in this state. Once the state
is changed it should never be changed back.
GGZMOD_STATE_CONNECTED
Connected state. After the GGZ client and game client get
connected, the game changes into this state automatically. Once
this happens messages may be sent between these two. Once the
game leaves this state it should never be changed back.
GGZMOD_STATE_WAITING
Waiting state. After the game client and game server are
connected, the client enters the waiting state. The game client
may now call ggzmod_set_state to change between WAITING,
PLAYING, and DONE states.
GGZMOD_STATE_PLAYING
Playing state. This state is only entered after the game client
changes state to it via ggzmod_set_state. State may be changed
back and forth between WAITING and PLAYING as many times as are
wanted.
GGZMOD_STATE_DONE
Done state. Once the game client is done running,
ggzmod_set_state should be called to set the state to done. At
this point nothing ’new’ can happen. The state cannot be changed
again after this. However the game client will not be terminated
by the GGZ client; GGZ just waits for it to exit of its own
volition.
enum GGZModType
The ’type’ of ggzmod.
The ’flavor’ of GGZmod object this is. Affects what operations are
allowed.
Enumeration values:
GGZMOD_GGZ
Used by the ggz client (’ggz’).
GGZMOD_GAME
Used by the game client (’table’).
Function Documentation
int ggzmod_connect (GGZMod * ggzmod)
Connect to ggz.
Call this function to make an initial GGZ <-> game connection.
· When called by the game server, this function makes the physical
connection to ggz.
· When called by ggz, it will launch a table and connect to it.
Parameters:
ggzmod The ggzmod object.
Returns:
0 on success, -1 on failure.
int ggzmod_disconnect (GGZMod * ggzmod)
Disconnect from ggz.
· When called by the game server, this function stops the connection to
GGZ. It should only be called when the table is ready to exit.
· When called by the GGZ server, this function will kill and clean up
after the table.
Parameters:
ggzmod The ggzmod object.
Returns:
0 on success, -1 on failure.
int ggzmod_dispatch (GGZMod * ggzmod)
Check for and handle input.
This function handles input from the communications sockets:
· It will check for input, but will not block.
· It will monitor input from the GGZmod socket.
· It will monitor input from player sockets only if a handler is
registered for the PLAYER_DATA event.
· It will call an event handler as necessary.
Parameters:
ggzmod The ggzmod object.
Returns:
-1 on error, the number of events handled (0-1) on success.
void ggzmod_free (GGZMod * ggzmod)
Destroy a finished ggzmod object.
After the connection is through, the object may be freed.
Parameters:
ggzmod The GGZMod object.
int ggzmod_get_fd (GGZMod * ggzmod)

void* ggzmod_get_gamedata (GGZMod * ggzmod)
Return gamedata pointer.
Each GGZMod object can be given a ’gamedata’ pointer that is returned
by this function. This is useful for when a single process serves
multiple GGZmod’s.

int ggzmod_get_num_spectator_seats (GGZMod * ggzmod)
Get the maximum number of spectators. This function returns the maximum
number of spectator seats available. A game can use this to iterate
over the spectator seats to look for spectators occupying them. Since
spectators may come and go at any point and there is no limit on the
number of spectators, you should consider this value to be dynamic and
call this function again each time you’re looking for spectators.
