Empty Project

- take a note of the location of the project

- check the option "place solution and project in the same directory"

 

Create a C language source code file

- change the extension from cpp to c

 

 

 

Compile your C program…

• VS menu: select Build | Build Solution ( F7 or Ctrl+Shift+B )

• Only one source file should exist in the project

 

When the compile was successful, run your program.

• VS menu: select Debug | Start without Debugging (Ctrl+F5)

Test on Matrix

matrix.senecacollege.ca is a Linux cluster which is the host server for your completed C programs.

1. install GlobalProtect VPN (Virtual Private Network)

• To use SSH/SFTP to matrix, users must be connected to the Seneca VPN.

2. install a Secure SHell Telnet (SSH) client which is a terminal app to sign on and use a Unix/Linux server like Matrix.

  Windows -- install PuTTY

3. install a Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) GUI app for transferring files from your system to a server.

 Windows -- install WinSCP. Its UI can launch PuTTY if it was previously installed

 

 

Upload your C source code file to matrix via an SFTP application (Secure File Transfer Protocol) such as WinSCP or Filezilla. Next, compile and run the program on matrix using a terminal program with SSH (Secure SHell)

1. make C source doe file, build, run and save
2. VPN 로그인 → WinSCP 접속 후 로그인
3.  로컬에서 매트릭스로 업로드 하면 자동으로 PuTTY열림 -- 이후 cmd 이용해서 제출

it is CRITICAL that C source files are Transferred in TEXT mode, not Binary mode. Automatic mode transfer works only if *.c and *.cpp file extensions are included in the FTP client’s list of text file masks.

Putty is the telnet client or terminal application.
You can sign on to matrix at the same time that you're tranferring a file to the matrix.
