What GUI? I think you're misunderstanding. No one is proposing changing how things link.
The concept here is that executables and objects are the same structures and there's no reason why we shouldn't be able to link to a routine found in /bin/ls as we would link to a routine found in libm.so.
This has nothing to do with "packaging library and exe code together."
- jayd16 4y agoI suppose I extrapolated a bit too far but I don't really see the point if not to package them together. If you wanted to link against an executable such that it was safe to do so, why not go further and pull apart a library for that executable and others anyway?
