Non-Networked Mode
The program must be able to work in a non-networked mode. In this mode, the database and GUI must run in the same VM and must perform no networking, must not use loopback networking, and must not involve the serialization of any objects when communicating between the GUI and database elements.
The operating mode is selected using the single command line argument that is permitted.
Architecturally, this mode must use the database and GUI from the networked form, but must not use the network server code at all.



Since it's a Non-Networked Mode,why they say "Architecturally, this mode must use the database and GUI from the networked form"?
I can't understand.Please give me some explain.Thanks a lot!

I think that means that you are supposed to reuse your database and GUI classes when you are in non-network mode. You aren't supposed to write a whole new implementation with new GUI code, for example. And in both modes, they are supposed to end up using your Data class.
