Constructor Detail

LocalModuleLoader

public LocalModuleLoader(File[] repoRoots)

Construct a new instance.

Parameters:

repoRoots - the array of repository roots to look for modules

LocalModuleLoader

public LocalModuleLoader(File[] repoRoots,
                 PathFilter pathFilter)

Construct a new instance.

Parameters:

repoRoots - the array of repository roots to look for modules

pathFilter - the path filter to apply to roots

LocalModuleLoader

public LocalModuleLoader()

Construct a new instance, using the module.path system property or the JAVA_MODULEPATH environment variable to get the list of module repository roots.

Method Detail

preloadModule

protected Module preloadModule(ModuleIdentifier identifier)
                        throws ModuleLoadException

Preload a module based on an identifier. By default, no delegation is done and this method simply invokes ModuleLoader.loadModuleLocal(ModuleIdentifier). A delegating module loader may delegate to the appropriate module loader based on loader-specific criteria (via the ModuleLoader.preloadModule(ModuleIdentifier, ModuleLoader) method).

Overrides:

preloadModule in class ModuleLoader

Parameters:

identifier - the module identifier

Returns:

the load result, or null if the module is not found

Throws:

ModuleLoadException - if an error occurs

findModule

protected ModuleSpec findModule(ModuleIdentifier moduleIdentifier)
                         throws ModuleLoadException

Find a Module's specification in this ModuleLoader by its identifier. This should be overriden by sub-classes to implement the Module loading strategy for this loader.

If no module is found in this module loader with the given identifier, then this method should return null. If the module is found but some problem occurred (for example, a transitive dependency failed to load) then this method should throw a ModuleLoadException of the relevant type.

Specified by:

findModule in class ModuleLoader

Parameters:

moduleIdentifier - The modules Identifier

Returns:

the module specification, or null if no module is found with the given identifier

Throws:

ModuleLoadException - if any problems occur finding the module

toString

public String toString()

Description copied from class: ModuleLoader

Get the string representation of this module loader.

Specified by:

toString in class ModuleLoader

Returns:

the string representation
