Description
This Course may make the rest of your life easy !! :p
This Course is not limited to only Linux Programmers, Windows Programmers using CodeBlocks or other IDE can also follow up on this course, however, all codes discussed in this course are compiled using GNU GCC compiler on ubuntu.
I have seen students, creating Menu-driven approaches in order to interact and test their Linux Or System programs and applications. This approach just somehow works but gives away soon when you need to provide additional input to your application Or a number of options to interact with the applications scales.
Hence, Tired of creating a Main-Menu Like interface to interact with your Linux short programs or projects? Here is a solution.
This is a short course using which you can quickly integrate the CLI library libcli to your linux programs or projects written in C or C++ in less than 1.5 hr. You can add more configuration, show, debug, clear etc commands as per your wish. Gone are the days of creating a Main Menu in order to interact with the Linux applications which do not have GUI interfaces.
In this course, we tour you quickly through the steps required to integrate the libcli to a C Hello world application and show you how you can add your own custom commands to your application in a step-by-step manner.
Note : We do not discuss the internal implementation of libcli library (as of today on 25 Aug 2019), the purpose of this course is to quickly help you come up with the CLI interface to your C/C++ programs and projects being developed on Linux platforms.
This is one-time effort!
After Doing this Short Course, You shall be able to integrate libcli library with all your future projects quickly, and this is essential for doing big projects in the system programming domain where the user has to provide a variety of a number of inputs to the application/project.
Through this short course you will understand :
1. How to integrate a given LibCLI library to the project in C/C++
2. Power of Callbacks
3. Compiling your projects by linking them with libcli library
4. Overview of Data structure used to organize Commands
Table Of Contents :
Section 1 :
We shall cover the necessary minimal theory to understand the high-level general design and implementation of Command-Line Interfaces.
Section 2 :
We shall be doing practical sessions - Integrating a libcli library to your hello world application/project
Note :
I would like to have your feedback, would you like me to expand this course and add more details regarding the internal design and implementation of libCLI library so that you can implement your own version of libCLI library as a project. It shall be an intermediate-level project.
I would also suggest you think along the way, about how would you have designed and implemented libCLI-like library by yourself from scratch. Take it as a self-system programming project.
Who this course is for:
- Anyone who create applications and projects on Linux platforms
Instructors
I have been engaged with coding and software for a decade now. I am a Networking developer at MNC. My rich working experience is backed by graduation from IIT Bombay as an MTech specialist. I am restless for more in-depth knowledge, and always working out the ways to integrate what I know in practical ways. I am always happy to train and encourage people on Udemy – the next-gen education platform.
I will help you to strengthen the networking concepts and fundamentals in a very practical way. I also hones in System Software Development, Linux System Programming and Network Software Development. I love to create courses on unique non-standard topics, and projects. Check my catalogue, you will find couple of project based courses which you can add to your resume.
You’ll complete assignments and work on a project where you’ll use all the theory. I make sure you build a proper understanding and that you’ll get all the questions and doubts answered. Let me take the privilege to guide you and bring useful additions to your resume !
