Class AccountEditor

java.lang.Object
  shoddybattle.AccountEditor

public class AccountEditor
extends java.lang.Object

This class offers a trivial application for creating a new user account with a specified user level. It should be invoked as follows:

java -cp dist/ShoddyBattle.jar shoddybattle.AccountEditor [PROPERTIES] USER PASSWORD LEVEL

where PROPERTIES is the server properties file to load, USER is the name of the user account to create, PASSWORD is the password (in plain text) to give the user account, and LEVEL is the user level (0, 1, or 2) to assign to the account. If a properties file is not provided then a default of server.properties is presumed.

In the future the functionality of this class should be expanded. At present, the main use of this class is for the installer to create to create an administrator account for the server operator.
