As per specification 1.2 changes, references to the term "module" and the term "library" should be reversed.

Module refers to the entire SELF/suprx/skprx. Library refers to a collection of exports. Spec 1.0 had these terms reversed.

  • Make changes in config (exports) file
  • Make changes in import db file
  • Make changes in console outputs
  • Make changes in source code (function names, variable names, etc)

Early in the development, there was a confusion on the meaning of "module" and "library" in context of the Vita. After the tools were written initially, we decided to reverse the meaning of those two words. All user-facing usage of those words have been changed (console outputs, messages, etc) but it is too much word to change all internal usage of those words (function/variable names, etc). Therefore you may be confused when reading the source since the meaning of "module" and "library" is used inconsistently. It would be great if someone could take the time to correct all the usages ("module" exports one or more "libraries" and imports zero or more "libraries"; eboot.bin is a module).

@yifanlu When you say "for exports & tools now", which do you mean ?
