[Corelinux-develop] Library Management

[Frank V. C. <fr...@co...>]

I would ask for feedback on
http://corelinux.sourceforge.net/doc/requirements/req4865.php.

Pay close attention to the design classes and diagram as the requirement
text is out of synch.

It is a interesting pattern in that it considers:

1. All libraries are not just of a *.so type, therefore allowing loaders
to handle any kind of load request
2. Objects in a library need some kind of meta-definition for reasoning
by the loader and the application
3. The immediate use and implementation of the team will be limited to
function libraries (*.so) with a common ABI (C).
4. This leaves the door open for the framework work of adding class
types dynamically plugged-in (Christophe may be keen on this) or CORBA
resolution handlers, or any other thing.
