Abstract
An application compatibility module is disclosed that provides compatibility between legacy binary system modules ('legacy binaries') and a native operating system. The application compatibility module therefore allows legacy applications to execute within the native operating system, while still using their corresponding legacy binaries. The application compatibility module may provide compatibility between legacy binaries and the native operating system by translating communications between the legacy binaries and the native operating system.
