Unix Shell Source Code
Unix Source Code – CRA Shell
Coded By Conrad Brookes
Published under GNU Free Documentation License
This page contains a complete shell program together with a complete explanation on how to compile and run along with the testing.
This study is a code designed to construct a shell that runs on a UNIX operating system. The program should be able to mimic any other shell that runs on a UNIX machine such as BASH. This program is written in the c programming language and must be built and run from a UNIX operating system.
Installation
The shell program crash needs the files parser.c, parser.h, and main.c. Also a make file: Makefile if compiling from the shell command prompt. Either creating a project with an IDE or typing make within the directory with the files in it will build the program.
Discussion
The way I approached it was to use the command line parser that was supplied, and also the main that was supplied. I added a function to the inside the main.c file called proCom. This method processes all the arguments, for communication between the command line and the operating system. It handles any of the common functions that are performed by the shell. These tasks include handling piping, redirection, background processing, exit, prompt and directory walking. As per requirements the directory walk, prompt change and exit are built in commands, that is they are defined by myself and they do use any major external functions. The rest of the handling is achieved though the use of UNIX system calls such as fork and dup2.
The handling of sequential commands is processes within parser.c, in the function process_cmd_line. The way it is accomplished is by handling the ‘;’ in exactly the same way the pipe is handled. I quite literally cut and pasted the pervious code in that function.
Limitations
There are a number of limitations to this program. The program does not handle wildcard expansion, it was removed from the program because of the faults in the coding. Also there is no error handling in the command line. That is if a command is entered incorrectly there is no notification to the user. Signal handling is also not added to this program.
