Please see attached OS-SnakeIT-Final-presentation-Demo-KxW-z523087 for a quick Presentation-form explanation. It's been virtually unaltered from the in-class presented form.
There's also a raport OS-SnakeIT_z523087_KajetanカイェタンWierszelisヴィエルシェリス_Final-Report (both in Markdown and PDF form), see it too.
See client.c and server.c. General alghoritm of program is explained in Raport mentioned above to keep this README short.
It's almost fully automated - see Makefile. How to:
- Run
make. - Select any client window
- Press any arrow key.
- Observe received position change.
- Repeat from "press some key" step, or...
- Press q or Shift+Q in client to exit main program loop and close the connection to server.
- Server will terminate if all connections are closed.
To run it as is, localhost has to be set in /etc/hosts (it is by default on most Linux distros). Otherwise replace localhost with your PC's IP address to send the packets thru LAN. If needed, you can alter the variables inside the Makefile like the address, port to allow e.g. for running server and client on separate machines (by default it runs on the same PC).
For testing each part you can use the run script as usual, which compiles and runs the program (if executable is created):
./run <server or client, without .c> <IP address (try localhost first)> <IP port>
