Library

From wikipedia:

In computer science, a library is a collection of subroutines or classes used to develop software.

Some libraries are used internally by the Blackberry OS, and some others are publicly accessible.

These modules implements private blackberry APIs

Module Description/Notes
net_rim_os Collection of miscellaneous stuff needed by OS. It contains, WAP stack from fourthpass, several classes related to LDAP, MIME, Service Book, ApplicationPermissionManager, HRT, Software Token, part of CLDC IO, HttpRequest, and even stuff like M3UPlaylist.
net_rim_io_impl implements the IO part of javax.microedition.io ('cod', 'icmp', 'tcpsocket', and 'udpsocket'). It also has an internal application to start ProtocolDaemon.
net_rim_loader Contains code to convert .jar file to .cod file. It parses the java bytecode from .jar file, and convert it into COD bytecode.
net_rim_sqlite interface to native SQLite code.
net_rim_nuance interface to native text to speech engine.
net_rim_bb_BluetoothFileTransfer bluetooth file transfer (implemented in Java)
net_rim_ui_impl this implements global menus such as 'Copy', 'Paste'.
net_rim_serial_formats Several serial data format (vcard) handling
net_rim_bb_addressbook address book library
net_rim_bb_addressbook_app address book application
net_rim_bb_addressbook_gal address book component to access Global Address List, always required by address book app
net_rim_bb_addressbook_models address book model (data structure) part
net_rim_bb_addressbook_vcard VCard from/to address book conversion (it uses net_rim_serial_formats in the implementation)
net_rim_bb_ldap_browser LDAP browser module, used by secure email component (net_rim_secureemail)
net_rim_bb_ldap_browser_pgp LDAP browser module (PGP part), used by secure email component (net_rim_secureemail)
net_rim_bb_ldap_browser_x509 LDAP browser module (X509 part), used by secure email component (net_rim_secureemail)
net_rim_ecmascript ECMAScript engine (it contains a compiler that generaates bytecode and interpreter to run it)
net_rim_ecmascript_resource ECMAScript engine resource
net_rim_speech javax.speech.recognition, javax.speech.spi, and javax.speech.synthesis

These modules implements public blackberry APIs
