out                  - contains class files
src/client/admin     - administrator client programs
src/client/customer  - customer client programs
src/common           - interfaces and exceptions shared between client programs and server
src/database         - classes related to backend database
src/server           - classes related to server backend
src/META-INF         - contains StoreServer.jar manifest
src/Makefile         - builds StoreServer.jar

These files contain initial values:

src/server/adminaccounts.csv     - administrator accounts created when server starts
src/server/customeraccounts.csv  - customer accounts created when server starts
src/database/itemdatabase.csv    - database items created when server starts

The server backend and client programs are hard-coded to send/receive on the same RMI port. The client programs are also hard-coded to look up the RMI registry from the same host.

The changeport target changes the hard-coded port across all files if needed. The default port is 54321.

The changeserverhost target changes the hard-coded server host across all client program files. The default server host is in-csci-rrpc01.

The StoreServer.jar included in the submission uses the default port (54321) and default server host (in-csci-rrpc01).

cd src
make changeport PORT=55555  # needed if port 54321 is in use
make changeserverhost HOST=in-csci-rrpc02  # needed if server is not running on in-csci-rrpc01
make

StoreServer.jar contains the server backend and client programs.

The server backend starts when StoreServer.jar is ran with no arguments. The server creates an RMI registry on localhost:54321, or on the port chosen during the build step. Client programs look for an RMI registry on in-csci-rrpc01, or on the server host chosen during the build step.
