Linux Open Source Development Programming GCC, CVS, Problem Solving with C++

The toolchain a Linux C/C++ developer actually used, plus the language references that sat beside it.

The Linux Development Platform is a book about gcc, gdb, make and CVS specifically. So The Definitive Guide to GCC and Karl Fogel\'s Open Source Development with CVS aren\'t loosely related; they\'re the two chapters that book only had room to summarise. The C++ titles are the language references that went with them.

What\'s included (numbered to match the photos)

1. The Definitive Guide to GCC, 2nd Edition (2006), William von Hagen. Apress. ISBN 1-59059-585-8. The newest and cleanest book in the lot. Photos 04–06.
2. The Linux Development Platform (2003), Rafeeq Ur Rehman & Christopher Paul. Prentice Hall PTR, Bruce Perens\' Open Source Series. ISBN 0-13-009115-4. CD-ROM included, unopened in its original rear-cover sleeve (photo 10). Photos 07–10.
3. Open Source Development with CVS (1999), Karl Fogel. Coriolis Open Press. ISBN 1-57610-490-7. Photos 11–14.
4. Problem Solving with C++ (1996), Walter Savitch. Addison-Wesley. ISBN 0-8053-7440-X. Photos 15–18.
5. C++ Reference, Special Pocket Edition (1993). PCI Publishing. ISBN 0-9635330-2-9. Photos 19–21.

Condition (please read this one)

Books 1–3 are clean, tight and unmarked; The Definitive Guide to GCC and The Linux Development Platform both grade Very Good. The other two are the reason this lot is listed Acceptable, and both are photographed:

• Problem Solving with C++: a previous owner\'s signature on the title page (photo 17) and heavy highlighting through the text (photo 18). Complete and readable, but a marked-up study copy rather than a clean reference.
• C++ Reference, Special Pocket Edition: heavy rubbing and scratching to the flexible covers, with worn and curled corners (photo 19). Binding sound, pages intact; a well-used desk reference that looks it.

If either of those is a problem for you, please don\'t buy. I\'d rather lose the sale than have you open the box disappointed.

About the disc

Only The Linux Development Platform shipped with media, and its CD-ROM is here, still in the original sleeve inside the back cover, never removed or opened. Because it is unopened it has not been tested in a drive, so it is sold as included original media rather than as guaranteed working software. The other four books did not come with any disc.
