This project is a part of the School 21 curriculum. The main goal of this project is to learn how to work with signals in Unix systems. The server is a program that receives messages and displays them. The client is a program that sends messages to the server.

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

What things you need to install the software and how to install them.

gcc >= 7.5.0
make >= 4.1

sudo apt-get install make
sudo apt-get install gcc

A step by step series of examples that tell you how to get a development env running.

Clone the repository.

git clone https://github.com/LudwigAndreas/minitalk.git

cd minitalk

Build the project using the makefile

make

Run the server program.

./server

Run the client program.

./client [server_pid]

Explain how to run the automated tests for this system.

make test

The server is a program that receives messages and displays them. The client is a program that sends messages to the server. The client program takes two arguments: the server process ID and the message to send.

./server

./client [server_pid]

After running the server and client programs, you can send messages from the client to the server. The server will display the received messages.
