About the project

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

Usage

Requirements

The function is written in C language and thus needs the gcc compiler and some standard C libraries to run.

Instructions

1. Compiling

To compile, go to the project path and run:

$ make

Testing

To test the program you just need to launch the "server" and the "client" in different shell tabs with the following:

$ ./server

This will show your PID to make the client work and will stay waiting to receive a message from the "client"

$ ./client "PID" "Your message string"
