About 'Arimaa Sample Java Bot' made by Jeff Bacher

I have downloaded his program and found in the main he wrote a comment
// Used for testing purposes
// String file_name = "c:/arimaa/bot/running/gamestate804";
// execute(file_name);
Where can I find such a file so that I can check the program first without any effort?
Can anybody provide me with such a file so that I can start a test of the bot?
Regards.

You can ignore those comments if you are using the Arimaa Engine Interface (AEI) which is the recommended interface now.
If you've only downloaded the bot then you will also need to download the AEI. See this page for more details:

Don't the sample bots still use the getmove interface though? But if starting fresh I of course think AEI is the way to go.

You're right, AEI won't help him with the older bots. For some reason I was thinking that simple_engine.py provided an interface to the getMove type bots. But I just looked at it again and it doesn't.
Sorry about that, asfaklive. You'll still have to download the bot interface kit from here to have older bots connect to the gameroom.
