By David R. Hanson

Each programmer and software program venture supervisor needs to grasp the paintings of making reusable software program modules; they're the construction blocks of huge, trustworthy purposes. not like a few smooth object-oriented languages, C presents little linguistic aid or motivation for growing reusable software programming interfaces (APIs). whereas such a lot C programmers use APIs and the libraries that enforce them in nearly each software they write, quite few programmers create and disseminate new, commonly appropriate APIs. C Interfaces and Implementations indicates the right way to create reusable APIs utilizing interface-based layout, a language-independent method that separates interfaces from their implementations. this technique is defined by way of instance. the writer describes intimately 24 interfaces and their implementations, offering the reader with a radical knowing of this layout method. positive aspects of C Interfaces and Implementations: *Concise interface descriptions that include a reference handbook for programmers attracted to utilizing the interfaces.* A guided journey of the code that implements every one chapter's interface tp aid these editing or extending an interface or designing similar interfaces. *In-depth specialize in "algorithm engineering:" the right way to package deal information buildings and comparable algorithms into reusable modules. *Source code for twenty-four APIs and eight pattern functions is tested, with each one offered as a "literate program" during which a radical rationalization is interleaved with the resource code. *Rarely documented C programming tricks-of-the-trade. *Convenient entry to all resource code within the e-book through the area broad net at http://www.cs.princeton.edu/software/cii/ 0201498413B04062001

Sample text

In a large program, it’s easy to use the same name for different purposes in otherwise unrelated modules. One way to avoid these name collisions is use a prefix, such as the module name. A large program can easily have thousands of global identifiers, but usually has only hundreds of modules. Module names not only provide suitable prefixes, but help document client code. The functions in the Arith interface provide some useful pieces missing from the standard C library and provide well-defined results for division and modulus where the standard leaves the behavior of these operations undefined or implementation-defined.

Unsigned division and modulus are well defined, so Atom_int can avoid the ambiguities of the signed operators by using unsigned arithmetic.
