The example programs from this chapter can be compiled with any modern C compiler. We recommend MinGW on Windows and GCC on Linux and macOS. See Appendix B, Setting Up Your C Compiler on Windows, Appendix C, Setting Up Your C Compiler on Linux, and Appendix D, Setting Up Your C Compiler on macOS, for compiler setup.
The code for this book can be found at https://github.com/codeplea/Hands-On-Network-Programming-with-C.
From the command line, you can download the code for this chapter with the following command:
git clone https://github.com/codeplea/Hands-On-Network-Programming-with-C cd Hands-On-Network-Programming-with-C/chap08
Each example program in this chapter runs on Windows, Linux, and macOS. When compiling on Windows, each example program requires linking with the Winsock library. This can be accomplished by passing the -lws2_32 option to gcc.
We provide the exact commands needed to compile each example as they are introduced.
