Java Docs

Go here to see the full Java Docs. A link to the actual Java source code for each class is in their respective documentation.

The solitaire game engine code is based off of a C++ version. The source for the GUI packages, view and view.awt, are pretty much crap. This was my first GUI in Java and a lot of hacking was done to get descent drag and drop performance.

I stopped working on the Java version when I started working on nyse.com.

Code Sample

Here is a source code sample. This is card.games.Canfield.java which creates and defines Canfield.

If it helps, note that my set methods always return a this which enables code like:

	somePile.available(...).build(...).deal(...);
	

	somePile.available(...); somePile.build(...); somePile.deal(...);
