Part 1 (APUE Ch03-Ch04)

C/C++ program to create directories and files.

First, create a directory named cs337, and change current working directory to cs3377.

Note. Your program should not use any of "system( )" calls for this part.

Task#1. Design and implement C/C++ program (a2part1.c or a2part1.cpp, and its executable named a2part1) to create directories and files, and/or to navigate the directories as shown below.

Before and after each call (e.g., to create a file or to create a directory), your program should print a message with a time-stamp (e.g., " ** created dir1 at 2018.09.29 13:59 **").

Task#2. After completing Task#1, your program should change its current working directory (to "a2part1"), to display each directory entry information of this directory and its all subdirectories. You should use "readdir" in APUE 4.22 and "stat" in APUE4.2 to display each directory entry information (similar to what "ls -l" command displays).

Task#3. Change the access-attribute of "file2.txt" to "rw- rw- r--" using "chmod" call (in APUE 4.9).

Task#4. Open the file "file1.txt" in dir1 for "write" and output the list of directory entries of this directory ("dir1"), and then close the file.

The execution of your program is now terminated.

Task#5. Use "ls -lR" command to show all the directories and files (with detailed file information) of the directory "a2part1" to show that your program ran successfully.

{cslinux1:~/cs3377/a2part1} ls -lR

./dir2:

total 0

-rw------- 2 rkm010300 cs 0 Jan 8 2018 dir2file1

Task#6. Provide Makefile to compile the program to generate its executable, and its session log of the execution.

Part1 Solution

1. List of your program

2. List of Makefile

3. List of your program run (session log/history)

4. List of your validation with "ls -lR" command to be run in a2part1 to list all its files and directories.

This is your current directory which is a2partl (in cs3377) dir2 file3.txt link1 dirl file1.txt dirl1 file2.txt file11.txt This is your current directory which is a2partl (in cs3377) dir2 file3.txt link1 dirl file1.txt dirl1 file2.txt file11.txt
