| 64 Library and Program Files | 64 Linking |
| 65 ------------------------- | 65 ------------------------- |
| 66 Kernel distinguishes between **library files** and **program files**. | 66 Linking from binary files is not yet implemented. In order to compile a whole |
| 67 | 67 program, currently everything must be compiled from source at once. |
| 68 Program files are self-contained and cannot reference anything outside the file. | |
| 69 Library files contain exactly one library and can import other libraries by a | |
| 70 URI equivalent to how imports work in a .dart file. | |
| 71 | |
| 72 Library files are a provisional concept and should not be used for anything | |
| 73 serious yet, but can be used for quick experiments, like measuring the binary | |
| 74 file size on a per-library basis. | |
