Hi

I have a few questions which I hope someone can answer.

Is there a document to list and explain how to use command line options?
Is it possible to generate and solve puzzles in batch (for example generate and solve 10 puzzles with a certain difficulty rating and output the results to files)?

When running in Windows using the command line
java -jar fixed14sudokuexplainer.jar
I get an error
Warning: Could not open/create prefs root node.... etc
What does this mean and can it be fixed?

Thank you for your help.

This was discussed here: http://forum.enjoysudoku.com/help-with-sudoku-explainer-t6677-30.html#p236181. You'll need to run SudokuExplainer at least once with administrator priviledge. This will create registry entries for some SudokuExplainer settings.

If you do not wish to run java with admin priviledge, you can update the registry manually by creating the 2 reg files below and running them in a command prompt.

se_hk_local_machine.reg
Code: Select all
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Prefs]



se_hk_current_user.reg
Code: Select all
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JavaSoft]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JavaSoft\Prefs]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JavaSoft\Prefs\diuf]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JavaSoft\Prefs\diuf\sudoku]
"is/R/C/Notation"="true"
"is/Antialiasing"="true"
"is/Showing/Candidates"="true"

Thank you - running as admin worked. Is it possible to do what I asked in the first question?

Run this, pipe stderr output to text file, view text file.
Code: Select all
java.exe -cp SudokuExplainer.jar diuf.sudoku.test.serate --man 2>SE.txt
