The client and server share the same “VersionInfo.cs” file that defines the versions. This allows us to detect if a client is too old relative to the server.

The current server build-deploy cycle needs serious rework and automation. Currently it works as follows:

  1. On build, the server binaries are placed in the Server\Photon folder\deploy\Ballistic\bin.
  2. The script Server\Photo\Server\CreateDeployment.ps1 is ran manually to produce the “deploy.zip” file that contains the deployment bits.
  3. The zip file is manually uploaded to the “server” container on Azure.
  4. When the cloud service is started (or deployed) it will extract the zip file and kick off PhotoServer.
