Interface ModuleVersionSelector

All Known Subinterfaces:

ClientModule, DependencyConstraint, ExternalDependency, ExternalModuleDependency

public interface ModuleVersionSelector

Selects a module version. If you need to change this interface, you're probably doing it wrong: it is superseded by ModuleComponentSelector, so check this first, and only add methods here if it's for bridging.
