Beginning Linux Programming 4th Edition
Building on the success of its previous editions, this must-have
guide continues its popular tutorial approach and brings you a
straightforward introduction to developing programs for Linux and
other UNIX-style operating systems. The author duo of experienced
Linux programmers covers a wide range of topics to help you learn
more about what Linux has to offer so you can maximize your
programming time and your use of the Linux system.
You'll progress from the basics of compiling programs, linking
to libraries, and dealing with terminal input and output to more
advanced subjects such as writing applications for the GNOME(R) and
KDE(R) environments, storing data using MySQL(R), and debugging. As
each topic is covered, the authors introduce an appropriate
programming theory and then illustrate it with practical examples,
clear explanations, and a step-by-step approach with the intent
that you will learn by doing. You'll quickly evolve from being a
Linux beginner to confidently creating custom applications in
Linux.
