Name
vmhost.h - T3 VM host interface
Function
The host interface defines a set of services that the VM obtains from
its host application environment. The VM uses the host interface to
obtain these services so that the VM doesn't have to make too many
assumptions about the larger application of which it is a subsystem.
Every application containing the VM must provide the VM with an
implementation of this interface.
