Release Notes - Version 1.0

🚀 New Features

Server and Client Implementation

• Server (game_tcp_server):

  • TCP server implementation to handle two clients for playing Tic Tac Toe.
  • Listens for client connections and assigns 'X' and 'O' to connected clients.
  • Utilizes a multi-threaded approach for handling multiple client connections simultaneously.
  • Displays connection details of clients and welcomes them to the Tic Tac Toe game.

• Client (game_client):

  • Connects to the Tic Tac Toe server using a TCP connection.
  • Implements a simple console-based user interface for making moves in the Tic Tac Toe game.
  • Receives and displays messages and moves from the server.

Tic Tac Toe Game Logic

• Tic Tac Toe Game (TicTacToe.cpp, TicTacToe.h):
  • Implements the core logic for the Tic Tac Toe game.
  • Allows two clients to play the game, making moves using a custom protocol.
  • Checks for a winner, validates moves, and updates the game board.
  • Communicates with the server and clients through the provided API.

🎮 Gameplay Enhancements

• Move Format:

  • Players can make moves using the format MOVXY, where X and Y are the coordinates (0-2).
  • Example: MOV11 represents placing a symbol in the center of the Tic Tac Toe board.

• Player Assignment:

  • Clients are assigned 'X' and 'O' upon connection to the server.
  • The server announces the player's assigned symbol upon connection.

📝 Additional Notes

• GitHub Actions:

  • Automated build and test workflows using GitHub Actions.
  • Automatic release generation for binaries when code is merged into the main branch.
  • Tagged releases follow the format v1.x, where x is the GitHub Actions run number.

• Clean Code Structure:

  • Organized project structure into distinct folders (src/tcp_server, src/client, src/boardGames).
  • Clear separation of server, client, and game logic.
