About the book
Linux constantly strengthens its presence in the world as a system platform for advanced applications. The maturing and rapid development of this versatile system, providing a whole wealth of free programming tools, allows you to be sure of its established position in the future. With a small amount of effort and resources, the Linux system provides a wide range of tools and support for new or emerging technologies. Thanks to this, the Linux system allows you to select and apply the right solutions in the application development process.
This book allows you to draw on the practical knowledge and rich experience of authors in the field of software development for Linux. The reader will be guided through the process of creating an example application for DVD movie rentals - thematically prepared chapters take various aspects of the implementation of this application. In turn, separate digressional chapters discuss important topics that go beyond the scope of the theme, which is the sample application. This monograph emphasizes the importance of practical aspects of programming, shows how important is the proper selection of the programmer's tools for a specific task, teaches them the correct use and indicates the shortest path to the desired goal.

Both experienced developers as well as ambitious future developers of Linux software will find here a lot of practical information on topics such as software libraries, techniques, tools and applications. The reader is required to know the basics of the Linux system, good practical knowledge of C programming. In addition, some chapters assume understanding of object-oriented programming in C ++.

The book discusses, among others:
  • Storage of data on a Linux system with particular emphasis on PostgreSQL, MySQL and XML.
  • Implementation of graphical user interfaces in Linux - discussion of KDE and GNOME.
  • WWW interfaces - application of the PHP module for the Apache server.
  • Python application - expanding and building this language.
  • Application of RPC and CORBA to construction of distributed object applications.
  • Version marking (using CVS), documentation, internationalization and distribution of projects.
  • Distributed hardware solutions such as diskless Linux and Beowulf clusters.
