How to send message through the network

• Don't forget to pull the code in the server machine too :). Just ssh to the server, go to your branch and pull :)
• Create a __Action.java class in networksrc. It implements Action.
• The constructor needs to take a parameter String senderName and save it in a senderName field. You can add more fields but they need to be serializable objects
• Implement isValid and execute. The network will call these on the server so only use classes/methods that are already in serversrc (very important!!! don't even import clientsrc)
• Send an ACK to all players in the specified game (see ExampleServerAction):

// get the player + game info
Player playerWhoSent = Player.getPlayerByName(senderName);
ServerGame playersCurrentGame = playerWhoSent.getCurrentGame();
// send to all players in the game
ACKManager ackManager = ACKManager.getInstance();
ExampleActionACK actionToSend = new ExampleActionACK(senderName);
ackManager.sentToAllPlayersInGame(actionToSend, playersCurrentGame);

• Or send an ACK to the sender only (see TestAction)

ACKManager ackManager = ACKManager.getInstance();
TestActionACK actionToSend = new TestActionACK();
ackManager.sendToSender(actionToSend, senderName);

• Create a __ActionACK.java class in networksrc. It implements Action.

• Implement isValid and execute. The network will call these on the client so only use classes/methods that are already in clientsrc (very important!! don't even import serversrc)

• Now you can send the message from client to server and wait for a reply:

ACTION_MANAGER.sendActionAndGetReply(new TestAction(currentUser.getName()));

• When it's not your turn, wait for messages from the server. This method will run until it's the player's turn again, then it will exit.

ACTION_MANAGER.waitForMessages();
