Gnu提供的命令行库Readline使用实例

      首先，大部分情况下，它不用单独安装，在Linux发行版本中已经包含了。

      它支持命令行补齐，历史操作记录，其他shell的快捷键定义和操作，下面是一个支持命令行补齐，和历史命令记录的例子，代码如下。

 

 

 

 

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <readline/readline.h>
#include <readline/history.h>

static char *line_read = (char *)NULL;

char *commands[] = {"ls -l","top -p","rm -rf"};

static char* command_generator(const char *text, int state)
{
        const char *name;
        static int list_index, len;

        if (!state)
        {
                list_index = 0;
                len = strlen (text);
        }

        while (name = commands[list_index])
        {
                list_index++;
                if (strncmp (name, text, len) == 0)
                return strdup(name);
        }

        return ((char *)NULL);
}

char** command_completion (const char *text, int start, int end)
{
        char **matches = NULL;

        if (start == 0)
 {
         matches = rl_completion_matches (text, command_generator);
 }
        return (matches);
}

void initialize_readline ()
{
        rl_readline_name = "jdbshell";
        rl_attempted_completion_function = command_completion;

        return ;
}

char *rl_gets()
{
 if(line_read)
 {      
         free (line_read);
         line_read = (char *)NULL;
 }
 line_read = readline("Please Enter:");

 if(line_read && *line_read)
 add_history(line_read);
 return(line_read);
}

int main()
{
 initialize_readline();
 char *mline;
 while(1)
 {
         mline = rl_gets();
  printf("%s\n",mline);
 }
}
