minitalk

Summary

The purpose of this project is to code a small data exchange program using UNIX signals.

First, clone this repository and cd into it:

$ git clone https://github.com/riceset/minitalk; cd minitalk

As this project uses the libft you will have to clone it on the root of the repository as well:

$ git clone https://github.com/riceset/libft

Compile the executable files with:

$ make

You can also compile the files for the server or the client individually:

$ make server

$ make client

First, start up the server and it will print a PID:

$ ./server

Now you can pass the PID of the server to the client as a command line argument with the message you wish to send:

$ ./client PID "Hello World"
