Mini project "library management" in C programming

      This is my college 1st-semester mini-project “library management “ in C programming language. This is a console application without graphics and compiled in code::block with GCC compiler. I hope it will help you to develop your own project similar project related to file handling for example “Banking “,” customer records”,” student records" etc.

I have divided my project into many functions and I will describe each of them which may help you to understand better.

List of function and their description are:-

void mainmenu(void);

                This function is used to display the main menu of the project.

 void returnfunc(void);

                To return back to the main menu. Inside this function, mainmenu function is called when the user press enter key.

void addbooks(void);

                To add books in a file.

void deletebooks(void);

                 To detete books from file.

void editbooks(void);

void searchbooks(void);

void issuebooks(void);

void viewbooks(void);

                All the above four-function does according to their name.

int  getdata();

                This function is used to take the required  data input from the user

int  checkid(int);

                This function check Id of book entered by the user does exist in file or not.

void Password();

This function asked the user to input the password but this function doesn’t give service to change password. We can’t change password, it is fixed and the password is “pokhara”.

Using like this function is not good so don’t use it in your project.

void issuerecord();

                This function is used to keep a record of students for whom the book is issued.

void loaderanim();

void gotoxy (int x, int y)

                This is the most important function used to print text in any place of the screen of our program. We can use this function directly in turbo c but it doesn’t work in code::block so we write code for this.

Below I have given code for gotoxy in code::block.

COORD coord = {0, 0};  // sets coordinates to 0,0 global variable

void gotoxy (int x, int y)

{

        coord.X = x; coord.Y = y; // X and Y coordinates

        SetConsoleCursorPosition(GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE), coord);

}

delay(unsigned int mseconds);

                This function is used to delay our execution. This function works directly in turbo c but in code::block, we have to write code.

Source code for delay function in code::block is given below.

void delay(unsigned int mseconds)

{

    clock_t goal = mseconds + clock();

    while (goal > clock());

}

Instead of delay function you can use Sleep(int milisecond) function directly in code::block.It takes time in milisecode as argument to delay programme execution.
