Subject: Discourage Uniform Driver Model?
Date: Sun, 14 Sep 2003 00:27:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200309140027.08610.jimwclark@ntlworld.com> (raw)
If it was possible to create a driver model that allowed module compatibility
across different releases/revisions without recompilation and with minimal
performance hit would this be desirable?
If such a model was possible should development be avoided to discourage
binary only modules?
James
