Interface SubSystem

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractBoot

public interface SubSystem

A sub-system holds a separate collection of modules.

On a simple level, subsystems can be just libraries. Libraries offering services need a controlled way to initialize these services before dependent code starts using the library. This can be achived by embedding the library services into an own subsystem.
