18.4 The ICE Prefix

All of the APIs for the Ice run time are prefixed by ICE, to avoid clashes with definitions for other libraries or applications. Parts of the Ice API are generated from Slice definitions; other parts provide special-purpose definitions that do not have a corresponding Slice definition. Regardless of they way they are defined, the ICE prefix universally applies to all entry points in the Ice run time. We will incrementally cover the contents of the Ice API throughout the remainder of the book.
