You can compile both server and client together simply running make.
To compile each individually do make server or make client respectively
$ ./AS -h
usage: ./AS [-h] [-v] [-d] [-p ASport] [-o log_file]
options:
-h, show this message and exit
-v, set log level to verbose
-d, set log level to debug
-p ASport, port where the server will be listening (default: 58078)
-o log_file, set log file (default: stdout and stderr)
$ ./user -h
usage: ./user [-h] [-d] [-n ASIP] [-p ASport]
options:
-h, show this message and exit
-d, set log level to debug
-n ASIP, IP of AS server
-p ASPORT, port where the server will be listening on (default: 58078)
To get a list of all available commands in the client type h, help or ?.
For a description of some command outputs type f or format.
To close a session type q, quit or exit.
The default configuration described in this section can be tweaked in the utils/config.h file.
The AS creates an ASDIR for its database on the working directory from where it is evoked.
The user and client use the port 58078 for both TCP and UDP.
Both the client and server have a set timeout of 5s to receive TCP and UDP responses.
The AS uses one thread for accepting TCP connections, 30 worker threads to serve the TCP connections and one thread to receive and serve UDP messages.
Client:

There are many weird things in the code like, random empty lines that differ from the normal style of the rest of the code, comments that seem to be misplaced/forgotten, inconsistent /** */ usage, interchangeable and inconsistant use of LOG_DEBUG and LOG_ERROR, etc. It's 6k lines of code, we are tired :l
