A module is a functionality of the program.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A module MAY store data in the store (@sec:thestore).
|
|
|
|
|
It MAY include user input in the data it stores in the store.
|
|
|
|
|
A module MUST HAVE a commandline interface, though a module always consists of
|
|
|
|
|
two parts:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- A Library
|
|
|
|
|
- A Binary, which
|
|
|
|
|
* is executable by the user
|
|
|
|
|
* implements a commandline frontend to the libray of the module
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By definition, the Binary depends on the Library.
|
|
|
|
|
By definition, the Library depends on the libstore (@sec:libstore).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A module MUST use the runtime library to implement the commandline
|
|
|
|
|
interface as defined in @sec:librt.
