Step-by-Step Instructions
for Preparing and Submitting Homework Jar Files

This page describes the steps required to create and verify your homework jar files in the turnin directory of the chess project.

The following assumes you have imported chess.zip from the course myWPI site into Eclipse as a project. If not, then you will need to familiarize yourself with the general concept of resource loading and the use of the jar utility.

Don't forget to update your javadoc (Project>Generate Javadoc) and the toplevel README.txt file in the 'turnin' directory before creating your jar file to turn in!

Note that the 'turnin' directory already contains an example chess.jar file, which was created from the small Chess example program provided to illustrated loading a model.

Here are the steps in Eclipse to make a new chess.jar file containing your homework:

Make sure you verify that your jar file is correct using the run_chess command in the command shell, before uploading it to Web Turn-In!

Finally, upload the chess.jar you have created to Web Turn-In.

Warning! As with any online submission system, it is always a good idea to verify that you see you uploaded file online before logging out of Web Turn-in.
