    So what's the problem?

    - sending bytes
    - receiving bytes
    - recording audio from a microphone
    - playing audio on a speaker

    Tackle the problem in small steps, focus on specific tasks and ask a specific question.

    "I want to write a ...." is not a useful question.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Which OS/Compiler are you using?

    Have your searches revealed anything to do with "sound" or "audio" recording?

    I am not sure whether it would be easy in Windows or Linux.
    I prefer Linux.

    Compiler : GCC

    You tell me - it's your project.

    So you found the library - good, that shows some initiative.

    So what's stopping you doing some READING?
    Or downloading the library and trying some examples?
    Or trying to modify the examples in simple ways to further enhance your understanding?

    I'm not going to download it, read it, then spoon-feed you just because you asked nicely.

    That was bit harsh from you. Anyway thanks for helping.
    I thought would JACK be the appropriate for my project.
