I think it's essential for bytecode modules that use the VM engine.
As for native code modules, should one be required to edit
the makefiles and relink the entire mud statically to effect a
change? I can compile and link native modules independently.
I can distribute my native module in binary form to another DevMud
user, who can simply add a few parameters to a configuration file
and, viola, they're using my module.

On some platforms dynamic load libraries are very much preferred.
With dynamic loading, an implementor need not even own a compiler,
just a bunch of binaries.

If there's any sort of message passing implementation, then yes,
inter-module inlining is impossible. Inlining within a module would
still work.

Yeah. If I had to weigh the overhead of many discrete function calls
and quite readable and understandable code versus speed and
optimization, I'd take readable code almost every time. But you are
quite right, inlines give you the best of both worlds.
I guess this hit is directly proprtional to the amount of
inter-module traffic. Which is sort of an unknown at this point.
Some prototypes of the different ideas would be helpful.

If you mean reusable outside of DevMUD, then one just calls the
functions like any other .dll. Within the context of use within
DevMUD, the wrapper or some other mechanism of indirection
would be used.

Yes, I know this does bother me a lot. I think there are many
disconnects here between those of the function/data persuasion and
those of the object-oriented persuasion.
> 2. interfacing is generic
I think a common protocol was desired. Generic to me implies
easily replaceable with another module that implements similar
functionality, but perhaps in an entirely different way. Or
modules which expose Facades which are particularly useful to
the application at hand. Wrappers could be customized to only
expose the particular functionality the server author needs.

That's why I've made an attempt at describing an all-top system.
I admit it's neither formal nor a good attempt. In fact it's been
highly critiqued by J. Wilson. Which I think is a very good thing.
I need to go back, rethink it, explore some prototypes and perhaps
make a more rigorous attempt at definition.
