Hi ,
I am using UNIX network programming Vol1 (by R Stevens) book to learn about IPC.
I would be using HP-UX,Solaris and Linux at my work.
I have sections for POSIX and for System V in that book.
I am quite confused in indentifying those OSs as POSIX or SYstem V.
Can anyone please help me which standard are those OSs belong to.
THanks
Kumaran
Please provide more details about what part of these standards you are talking about.
Solaris and HP-UX are both based on System V source code and POSIX compliants. Gnu/Linux isn't based on System V but tend to be closer to its semantics than it used to be, depending on the distributions too. Gnu/Linux is also probably close to unofficially comply with many POSIX standards.
