Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 25, Problem 25.5E
Explanation of Solution
The difficulties that arise when building a system from its components are as follows:
- As the naming conventions differ in each place, naming in code may cause some problems.
- In a system with large number of components, there are chances for some components to be missing.
- When the version specification is inappropriate, the system may fail to work after some duration.
- Different compiler versions will generate different code and the compiled component will exhibit different behaviour...
