Problemset Setup

A set of problems

Problemsets are like the fathers of problems. Each problem is contained in exactly one problemset and each problemset contains several questions.

A problemset is defined in a folder under the problems folder in the manager main folder. It has the following format

problems/problemset1/
                    problemset.json
                    problem1.1
                    problem1.2
                    problem1.3
                    ...
         problemset2/
                    problemset.json
                    problem2.1
                    problem2.2
                    problem2.3
                    ...

the folder name is the id of the problemset. It should be short and easy to type.

the problemset.json is a required file. It looks like follows:

{
    "name":"Some problemset", //the name of the problemset
    "stTime":0, //the start time of the problemset,
    "edTime":1145141919810, //the freeze time of the problemset
    "scheme":"first" //Which submission to show in the standing? Can be one in "first" "last" "best"
}

the problem can only be viewed after the stTime and the standing of the problemset will freeze after edTime. stTime and edTime are all Unix timestamps by ms. You can read more about standing here.

You can generate stTime and edTime by calling System.currentTimeMillis()in Java.

Each subfolder in each problemset contains exactly one problem.
