Chess engine: Jackychess 0.9.14 (written in Java)


Jacky Chess - a simple UCI chess engine written in Java.
Author: Matthias Lang

This project is mainly a self educational project to learn the various algorithms around chess computers. Inspiration was mainly given by the great chess programming wiki
https://www.chessprogramming.org/ where you can get a good overview about all used
algorithms.

Requirements
Java 8 to compile the engine. 
The chess engine should work under any UCI chess client. It was mainly tested with Arena.

v.0.9.14:
fixed issue when running engine within a batch file: uci quit has not exit process (because of other threads still running)
log files are by default not written, but only if java property jacky.logging.activate is set to true.
minor internal code refactorings
