Unix Programming Tools By Parlante, Zelenski, and many others Copyright ©1998-2001, Stanford University Introduction This article explains the overall edit-compile-link-debug programming cycle and introduces several common Unix programming tools -- gcc, make, gdb, emacs, and the Unix shell. The goal is to describe the major features and typcial uses of the tools and show how they fit together with enough detail for simple projects. Weve used a version of this article at Stanford to help students get started with Unix. Contents Introduction — the  compile-link process 1 The gcc compiler/linker 2 The make project utility 5 The gdb debugger 8 The emacs editor 13 Summary of Unix shell commands 15 This is document #107, Unix Programming Tools, in the Stanford CS Education Library. This and other free educational materials are available at http://cslibrary.stanford.edu/. This document is free to be used, reproduced, or sold so long as it is intact and unchanged. Other Resources This article is an introduction — for more detailed information about a particular tool, see the tools man pages and xinfo entries. Also, OReilly & Associates publishes a pretty good set of references for many Unix related tools (the books with animal pictures on the cover). For basic coverage of the C programming language, see CS Education Library #101, (http://cslibrary.stanford.edu/101/). The Compile Process Before going into detail about the individual tools themselves, it is useful to review the overall process that goes into building an executable program. After the source text files have been edited, there are two steps in the build process: compiling and linking . Each source file (foo.c) is compiled into an object file (foo.o). Each object file contain a system dependent, compiled representation of the program as described in its source file. Typically the file name of an object module is the same as the sourc ...
