Normative Rules

  • these features affect more than delivery; they influence name visibility and execution environment
  • BricsCAD supports related but different packaging mechanisms such as DEScoder
  • namespace isolation is a delivery facility, not a security or correctness boundary: an engine that does not implement it loads the module anyway, with every name globally visible (see VLX namespace compatibility below). Code must not depend on namespace hiding for correctness.
