2.3 Controlling the visibility of names

It is a well-known problem that naming conflicts arise when independently created libraries are used by a single application. It is also common that the meaning of a name must be different for different uses of a single component.

Therefore, edition 4 strives to minimize the occurrence of naming conflicts when independently created libraries are used by a single application and make it possible to resolve those conflicts when they do occur. Furthermore, edition 4 strives to make it possible for users to select the meaning of names between versions and uses.
