Praise for the Linux Standard BaseCommunity-built software and community-built standards are two sides of the same coin. Standards help ensure that the freedom to invent, the essence of open source and Linux, doesn't compromise the ability to write software that works together effectively. The LSB is an important set of standards for the Linux community. - Brian Behlendorf, Apache Software Foundation, CollabNetWith the recent success of the LSB and the adoption on a wide scale of the LSB standards, building applications that are standards-compliant has become a much easier and more necessary part of the development on Linux as a platform. - Jeffrey Hemos Bates, Editor, Slashdot.orgIn the days before the LSB, every change and every improvement we wanted to make to our Linux product was subject to somebody saying, 'But wait! I depend on that!' The LSB laid out what interfaces were defined and how they should be used. Since the LSB was adopted, we have been free to innovate without fear of breaking somebody else's assumptions. The success of the LSB recommended it as the starting point for the U.S. Linux. Without the LSB, there would be no COE-certified Red Hat products today. - Michael Tiemann, Chief Technology Officer, Red Hat, Inc.As an active LSB member, SUSE LINUX is committed both to providing customers with standardized Linux technology and to simplifying ISV's and IHV's Linux certification efforts. The availability of common standards plays a decisive role in the proliferation of Linux operating systems and applications on server and client systems worldwide, and we appreciate the LSB project's work in developing and promoting these standards. - Markus Rex, General Manager of SUSE LINUX for NovellWe are very happy to see the progress of LSB, both in the definition of the standard and in its broad support. LSB is an important part of our strategy and MandrakeSoft will continue to support the efforts of LSB to define a standardized ABI and encourage ISVs to build and certify to this standard. - Francois Bancilhon, Chief Executive Officer, MandrakeSoftThe launch of the LSB is a significant development for the Linux community. will be able to be shared across different systems from different vendors. The LSB will play a pivotal role in ensuring the proper development of the Linux market. Sun Wah Linux is excited about this phenomenon and is dedicated to supporting LSB's future efforts and endeavors. - Alex Banh, Chief Executive Officer, Sun Wah Linux, P.R.C.An initiative of the Free Standards Group, the Linux Standard Base (LSB) is a set of standards designed to increase compatibility among Linux distributions and enable applications to run on any LSB-compliant system. The advent of LSB 2.0 is revolutionary in that it allows ISVs to create shrink-wrapped software for the Linux platform much in the same way they already do for Windows.Written by the team that created the LSB, Building Applications with the Linux Standard Base shows developers how to create, test, and certify software for LSB 2.0 compliance. The book's hands-on approach lets readers quickly understand how to write Linux applications that are portable across multiple distributions, including those from SuSE, Mandrake, and Solaris. sample program files used in the book. Coverage includesLSB coding practices Software packing and installation issues UNIX-to-Linux migration tips Testing Linux distribution and applications for LSB compatibility Examples of applications using the LSB Relevant standards for Linux
