MAGOS PROJECT

About

MAGOS Provide functions, user interface and tools for visualizing the process of generation and solving of a perfect maze, created with a set of given configurations. This project work with lots of important concepts in programming such as data structures( stacks,sets, lists,hash-table... ), object-oriented programming, file reading, API handling, code documentation and project modules. All the code is in C++ and every module can be individually compiled by entering its build folder and using make at linux terminal.

The main project is at /magos_build folder and the makefile target all individual modules and libs.

Important

Every configuration should be at: setup.txt .

The individual config order doesn't matter since my ConfigFileReader can handle it but all the setup needs to be setted.

On setup file each config have to be followed by the symbol ':', the very first value after that symbol is setted as the value for that configuration.

INVALID CONFIGURATION RESULT IN SEGMENTATION FAULT OR INFINITE TRIALS OF SETTING UP VARIABLES.

Note: Invalid configurations is any config that makes drawing impossible. Ex: canvasWidth: -1.

MAKE: ../MAGOS/build_magos and make.

DEFAULT CONFIGS

Remember - When change the number of rows and cols in a maze change the start and ending flag indexes. Invalid margins will result in fail.

• Canvas setup

  • canvasWidth: Width of the canvas and each image in pixels
  • canvasHeight: Height of the canvas and each image in pixels
  • canvasPaddingTop: Margin ( top and bottom ) between canvas and its elements
  • canvasPaddingLeft: Margin ( left and right ) between canvas and its elements

• Maze design setup

  • mazeRows: Total of maze rows.
  • mazeCols: Total of maze cols.
  • startFlagIndex: Start position index of maze.
  • endFlagIndex: End position index of maze.

• Outputs

  • outputBuilding: Output file for building.
  • outputSolver: Output file for solving.

• Maze design

  • startFlagMargin: Margin from start cell to the painted box that represents it.
  • endFlagMargin: Margin from end cell to the painted box that represents it.
  • checkingFlagMargin: Margin from the actual on checking cell to the painted box that represents it.
  • visitedFlagMargin: Margin from visited cells to the painted box that represents it.
  • discardedFlagMargin: Margin from discarded cells to the painted box that represents it.
  • wallThickness: Thickness of the line that make maze walls.
