Mini Project (C)

Goals

• Gain programming confidence
• Practice multiple file handling

Workflow

• This is console based menu-driven application. Based on user login appropriate menu will be visible.
• Each book can have multiple copies and organized into multiple racks.
• Issue/return of individual copy is expected. For example, if “C Programming Language (by Ritchie)” have 10 copies, each copy can be issued and returned independently.
• Book can be issued if and only if user is paid user. Otherwise error message will be displayed. Payment of each user will be collected by Librarian on monthly basis.
• Book is expected to return in 7 days. If delayed, fine of Rs. 5/- is applicable and should be taken by Librarian while returning book.

Technologies & tools

• Programming language: C
• Database: File-IO
• IDE: Eclipse or VIM or any other IDE

Code Compilation

Compiling files individually

* gcc -c main.c ==> main.o
* gcc -c member.c ==> member.o
* gcc -c librarian.c ==> librarian.o
* gcc -c owner.c ==> owner.o
* gcc -o library.exe main.o member.o librarian.o owner.o

Compiling all files together

* gcc -o library.exe main.c member.c librarian.c owner.c date.c common.c
