Worked on the EQEmu/Server repository to modernize and streamline its build and development processes over three months. Introduced a cross-platform CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions and Shell scripting, replacing legacy Drone CI and standardizing automated builds for Linux and Windows. Enhanced the CMake build system, normalized include paths, and simplified platform-specific headers to reduce maintenance overhead and improve reliability. Focused on code quality by refactoring C++ code, replacing deprecated memory management patterns with std::unique_ptr, and addressing compiler warnings. These efforts improved build stability, accelerated release cycles, and established a maintainable foundation for ongoing cross-platform game server development.
April 2026 (2026-04) — EQEmu/Server: Delivered essential code quality and memory-safety enhancements to strengthen reliability, maintainability, and future development velocity. Replaced deprecated std::auto_ptr with std::unique_ptr, hardened error handling, and completed targeted code cleanup. These changes reduce memory-related risk, lower maintenance costs, and improve CI/build stability. Commits contributing these improvements include 491b1edd12bc48a82f4d7bd8ef5b9510861d159b and 6694281f2243278f5517e97fd1e937a7f2dbd237.

December 2025 EQEMU/Server monthly summary focused on build-system modernization, cross-platform include hygiene, and code maintenance to reduce build fragility and ongoing maintenance burden. Major features delivered include CMake build system improvements (project folders, removal of unused gm_commands CMakeLists.txt), platform header simplifications for Windows/POSIX, and extensive include-path normalization across modules. Clean-up work removed unused sources and eliminated global_define.h usage, with luabind include-path adjustments. Build reliability improvements include MSVC_DEBUG_CRT option; fixes addressing Windows line endings and undefined behavior in log aliases. Overall impact: faster, more reliable builds, easier cross-platform compilation, and a solid base for future development.
