MyBankingSystem - C++ Project with CMake

MyBankingSystem is a simple C++ project that simulates a basic banking system. It demonstrates the use of CMake for building and organizing the project, as well as C++ features like namespaces, header files, and modularity.

Project Structure

The project is structured as follows:

MyBankingSystem
│
├───include
│ ├───Account.h
│ ├───Transaction.h
│ └───MyBank.h
│
├───src
│ ├───Account.cpp
│ ├───Transaction.cpp
│ └───main.cpp
│
├───CMakeLists.txt
└───README.md

---

• include: This directory contains header files for the Account and Transaction classes, as well as a common header file MyBank.h to include all the headers.
• src: This directory contains the implementation files for the classes and the main program.
• CMakeLists.txt: This is the CMake configuration file for generating build scripts.

Build Instructions

To build the project, follow these steps:

1. Make sure you have CMake installed on your system.
2. Open a terminal or command prompt.
3. Navigate to the root directory of the project (MyBankingSystem).
4. Create a new directory called build: mkdir build
5. Change into the build directory: cd build
6. Generate the build files with CMake: cmake ..
7. Build the project using the generated build system:
   • On Unix-like systems (e.g., Linux, macOS): make
   • On Windows using Visual Studio: Open the generated solution file (MyBankingSystem.sln) and build the project from the IDE.

After a successful build, you should find the executable MyBankingSystem in the build directory. Run it from the command line to execute the banking system simulation.

Usage

The program simulates a simple banking system where you can create accounts, perform deposits, and withdrawals. It also shows basic transaction details.

Features and Improvements

The current version of the project is a simple demonstration of CMake, namespaces, and header files. To expand the project further, you can consider adding the following features:

1. Error Handling: Implement robust error handling for user input and transaction operations.
2. Database Integration: Integrate a simple database (e.g., SQLite) to store account information persistently.
3. Additional Banking Features: Add more banking features such as balance inquiries, account statements, etc.
4. Graphical User Interface (GUI): Create a graphical user interface using a library like Qt for a more user-friendly experience.
5. Unit Tests: Write unit tests using a framework like Google Test to ensure code correctness.
