The excellent book
Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment
by W. Richard Stevens (Addison-Wesley, 1992) contains many source code
examples, some of which are used as the test programs for some of the Wrappers.
The directory util/apue in the Porting Wrappers contains his main header file
and library of utility functions used in his code examples, for example, in
error reporting.
For an introduction, check out the
Programming and POSIX
seminar presented at Solutions Symposium 2000.
The book
POSIX Programmer's Guide
by Donald Lewine (O'Reilly, 1991) may also be useful.
The book "The POSIX.1 Standard - A Programmer's Guide" by Fred Zlotnick
(Benjamin/Cummings, 1991) appears to be out of print.
The POSIX Standard
from IEEE contains very detailed specifications of every POSIX function.
