Synopsis

Applications are wide and varied in GNU/Linux, and include not only pure applications, but also tools and utilities for the GNU/Linux environment. GNU/Linux Application Programming takes a holistic approach to teaching developers GNU/Linux programming using APIs, tools, communication, and scripting. Covering a wide range of topics related to GNU/Linux application programming, the book is split into five parts: The GNU/Linux Operating System; GNU Tools; Processes; Communication; and Coordination; Shells and Scripting; and Debugging. Application and tool developers are introduced to the most useful aspects of the GNU/Linux operating system, including tools (compilation, automated build and package creation), standard libraries, communication and synchronization APIs, process and thread models, shell scripting and extension languages, and debugging. After working through the text, programmers will have a solid foundation for developing applications in the GNU/Linux environment.
