  • please use linked list to store data in memory, when exit the application, you should persist the data to file system.

  • when application start if you can reload the persistent file is a plus.

  • please use simple key/value as persistent file format

  • a big plus if you can implement an address book server within the application(telnet or raw socket protocol). when you start interactive command line application, first it starts a socket server, then takes interactive commands as the input for your socket client.

  • gcc or g++ should be should be used to compile and generate runable application. If you working on windows, you can use Cygwin.

  • please provide your steps to build this application

    • Make file is a plus.

  • DO NOT store any IDE specific files into git repository

  • if there is any fault in this readme, please also fix it or submit an issue

Note

  • Fork me and use pull request to submit changes to develop branch. Anything unclear about the feature, fire issue.
