All Implemented Interfaces:

GameListener, TurnListener

public class DefaultReferee

extends Referee

Author:

David Kaplin This referee is abstract enough to work with most turn-based games. Alone, it knows nothing of the rules of the game. To decide such manners it negotiates with the System and Move Analyzers. It also notifies the Game itself of certain events so that they can be broadcast to all listensers. This Referee works with the players directly and acts as a facade to keep them from interacting with the raw game logic.
