Public interface
open-in-new
<p>In <a href="/facts/Computer_science/lN3pEyPz">computer science</a>, a public interface is the logical point at which independent <a href="/facts/Software/RP79lVSW">software</a> entities interact. The entities may interact with each other within a single computer, across a network, or across a variety of other <a href="/facts/Topology/2EqW47cU">topologies</a>. </p><p>It is important that public <a href="/facts/Interface_(computing)/zdfp8unT">interfaces</a> will be stable and designed to support future changes, enhancements, and deprecation in order for the interaction to continue. </p>
