get_next_line is a 42 school project whose goal is to create a function that reads a line ending with a newline character from a file descriptor.
- Clone the repository with
git clone
- Compile your program with
get_next_line.c
andget_next_line_utils.c
- Include the header file
get_next_line.h
in your project
- The function must be named
get_next_line
. - The function must be prototyped as follows:
int get_next_line(int fd, char **line);
- The function must return its result without ’\n’.
- The function must return 1 when it reads a line, 0 when it has finished reading and -1 when an error has occurred.
- The function must be able to handle memory leaks.
- Manage multiple file descriptors without losing the reading thread on each of the descriptors.
cc name_file.c get_next_line.c get_next_line_utils.c -o name_program #the name_program executable
#include "get_next_line.h"
int main(void)
{
int fd;
char *line;
fd = open("file.txt", O_RDONLY);
while (get_next_line(fd, &line) > 0)
{
printf("%s\n", line);
free(line);
}
close(fd);
return (0);
}
- Better error handling
- Better Code
