MasterServer is an cross-platform extensible server container, that aims to simplify the creation of multiple servers in one machine.

WARNING: Each module MUST BE CREATED with MDK otherwise they will not be loaded.

Features

• Cross-platform. Works with Windows and POSIX systems.
• Automaticly read the module configuration using an unified INI file and sends it's data to the module.
• Automaticly connects to a database and passes the connection to all the modules. You only need to setup the connection once.
• Module-based system. You can run everything in one machine or multiple modules in different machines.

How a module is being loaded?

It simply loads this int MDKModule(void* data) function in an exported dynamic library.

the data parametra is a pointer to a ModuleMain structure.

Due to the thread entrypoint design, you have to fetch the parametra manually.

typedef struct SModuleMain { char *ip; int port; ModuleConfigMap cfg; mdk_database db; } ModuleMain;

ip is the recommended ip that the program should use. port is the recommended port that the program should use. cfg is a map containing the module configuration. It can be used to fetch any specific configuration from the INI. db is a pointer to a database connection. KEEP IN MIND that the connection could be a null pointer.

There are also some error codes used in MDK to determine the error code, see MasterServerMDK.h for more information.
