Neil Matthew has been interested in and has programmed computers since 1974. A mathematics graduate from the University of Nottingham, Neil is just plain keen on programming languages and likes to explore new ways of solving computing problems. He’s written systems to program in BCPL, FP (Functional Programming), Lisp, Prolog, and a structured BASIC. He even wrote a 6502 microprocessor emulator to run BBC microcomputer programs on UNIX systems. In terms of UNIX experience, Neil has used almost every flavor since the late 1970s, including BSD UNIX, AT&T System V, Sun Solaris, IBM AIX, many others, and of course Linux. He can claim to have been using Linux since August 1993 when he acquired a floppy disk distribution of Soft Landing (SLS) from Canada, with kernel version 0.99.11. He’s used Linux-based computers for hacking C, C++, Icon, Prolog, Tcl, and Java at home and at work.
All of Neil’s “home” projects are developed using Linux. He says Linux is much easier because it supports quite a lot of features from other systems, so that both BSD- and System V-targeted programs will generally compile with little or no change.
Neil is currently working as an Enterprise Architect specializing in IT strategy at Celesio AG. He has a background in technical consultancy, software development techniques, and quality assurance. Neil has also programmed in C and C++ for real-time embedded systems.
Rick Stones started programming at school (more years ago than he cares to remember) on a 6502-powered BBC micro, which, with the help of a few spare parts, continued to function for the next 15 years. He graduated from Nottingham University with a degree in Electronic Engineering, but decided software was more fun.
Over the years he has worked for a variety of companies, from the very small with just a dozen employees, to the very large, including the IT services giant EDS. Along the way he has worked on a range of projects, from real-time communications to accounting systems, to very large help desk systems. He is currently working as an IT architect, acting as a technical authority on various major projects for a large pan-European company.
A bit of a programming linguist, he has programmed in various assemblers, a rather neat proprietary telecommunications language called SL-1, some FORTRAN, Pascal, Perl, SQL, and smidgeons of Python and C++, as well as C. (Under duress he even admits that he was once reasonably proficient in Visual Basic, but tries not to advertise this aberration.)
Beginning Linux Programming, Fourth Edition continues its unique approach to teaching UNIX programming in a simple and structured way on the Linux platform. Through the use of detailed and realistic examples, students learn by doing, and are able to move from being a Linux beginner to creating custom applications in Linux. The book introduces fundamental concepts beginning with the basics of writing Unix programs in C, and including material on basic system calls, file I/O, interprocess communication (for getting programs to work together), and shell programming. Parallel to this, the book introduces the toolkits and libraries for working with user interfaces, from simpler terminal mode applications to X and GTK+ for graphical user interfaces. Advanced topics are covered in detail such as processes, pipes, semaphores, socket programming, using MySQL, writing applications for the GNOME or the KDE desktop, writing device drivers, POSIX Threads, and kernel programming for the latest Linux Kernel.
今天终于读完了这本书,这本书围绕begining展开,对Linux程序设计里的广泛领域的大量主题都进行了介绍,作为一本linux开发领域的入门级和指南性的读物,强烈推荐那些想要进行Linux开发的菜鸟作为自己的入门拐杖,这本书所探讨的主题都具有很高的使用价值,抓大放小,没有把初学者带入...
評分虽然不如APUE那一类书出名,作为Linux初学者,这本书绝对是最佳选择;从shell一直讲到x-window编程,语言平易近人,确实是一本难得的好书,就是价格高了些,许多Linux的技巧性知识在书中也有提及。
評分可以将这本书作为学习linux编程的入门级书籍,讲得不深,涉及到的知识面还行,但要深入的话,建议参照《UNIX环境高级编程》来读。 我读的是英文版的,语言不难,有些地方参考了第三版中文版来读,第三版的翻译不错,不知道第四版咋样,但应该不会差,推荐初学者看。
評分实验室的师兄极力推荐的一本书,看了下目录觉得条理清晰,不过拿到的是英文电子版的,很难静下心来去认真读。
評分确实是很好的一本Linux初级读物。 我从06年开始接触Ubunu Linux,记得当时版本还只是5.10。 接着,07-08年开始在UNIX下写各种程序。再后来(09-10)转入计算机图形学的研究,醉心于Windows操作系统下的DirectX渲染技术。 很幸运,在2011年春开始返回到我所热爱的Linux编程领域...
做瞭一個linux programmer,這本書是一個很好的入門.
评分實體書手感很好啊,滿滿的迴憶。。。。
评分寫得很雜,連mysql都有,適閤不知道linux能做些什麼事情的人
评分英文版。很好的Linux編程入門書籍,有實例講細節。不過沒看QT、GTK+章節,目前還沒有瞭解GUI編程的興趣。
评分實體書手感很好啊,滿滿的迴憶。。。。
