This project is a demo for how to use Unix domain socket(Local socket) to communicate between client and server. And the server supports multiple clients via multi-threading.
NOTES: There is no message boundaries in Unix domain socket with "SOCK_STREAM" type. Since Linux kernel v2.6.4, it supports "SOCK_SEQPACKET", a connection-oriented socket that preserves message boundaries and delivers messages in the order that they were sent. Try "man unix" for more info about it.
(1) Open a terminal.
(2) chdir to the source code directory.
(3) Run "make"
(1) Start the server:
$ ./server
(2) Start the client to send request to server:
$ ./client
