Systemd 217 Will Introduce Its New "Consoled" User Console Daemon

[pal666]

A software system is called "monolithic" if it has a monolithic architecture, in which functionally distinguishable aspects (for example data input and output, data processing, error handling, and the user interface), are not architecturally separate components but are all interwoven


ALL aspects of SystemD is interwoven. It is monolithic, it is modular...
sort out your defnition

you missed word 'interfaces' in my reply, didn't you ?

[grndzro]

Interwoven one way does not mean it is monolithic. SystemD is more like a tree, not interwoven
Monolithic means one piece. While I would agree separate binaries that cannot be separated PERIOD would classify as monolithic. This is not the case with SystemD.

You do not have to use all the flags in SystemD You are free to use only the components your build needs.

which is why it is modular. It is still monolithic, like the kernel, like Xorg

Nearly all your programs depend on glibc. By your definition its an evil monolithic glibc conspiracy!

The detail you are missing is that you can replace the glibc part with a compatible replacement (thats where the "Interface" comes into play).

You need a lesson in English....
Modular and Monolithic are mutually exclusive.

From Webster
Monolithic = consisting of or constituting a single unit
Modular = having parts that can be connected or combined in different ways.

Your comprehension skills are such that I find it impossible that you can adequately understand anything of complexity.

Linux Kernel is one file.
Xorg is a package of completely dependent files. All are required
SystemD is a package that can be divided up as you see fit.

See the difference?

wrong, go look up the software engineering definition.
Being monolithic isn't bad, but saying it isn't when it is stretches reality.

Before Naib wastes any more of your time people, you should know he is a gentoo forum user here to troll and spread poison.
Yesterday he even posted in this thread: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t...start-375.html : stating that Lennart needed someone to take their "dick" and put put it in his ass (like anal rape of lennart) his post got cleaned away by mod but maybe a google cache or something still exists.

You are the one making the claim, why don't you look it up and post a source here? A reliable source, not some random blog or anti-systemd website or something.

Nice try.

From Wikipedia
In software engineering, a monolithic application describes a software application which is designed without modularity. Modularity is desirable, in general, as it supports reuse of parts of the application logic and also facilitates maintenance by allowing repair or replacement of parts of the application without requiring wholesale replacement.

Just admit you are wrong. It's easier that way.
