# File indexer

It works under Linux. It has not been tested on Windows.

# Compilation

It suffices to do:

```bash

mkdir bin obj

make

```

# Test

From one terminal, we should do, once compiled:

```bash

./bin/file-indexer 8000 .

```

This would mount this folder in the 8000 port. We have a test file named `requests` into this directory. To test the concurrent requests it contains, we should do, from another terminal:

```bash

cat requests | while read n; do printf "%q\n" "$n"; done | xargs -P 4 -I % bash -c %

```

This last test generates 4 concurrent requests, whose result will sometimes be unordered. An example:
