      • create

        public static ModuleIdentifier create​(String name,
                                      String slot)
        Deprecated.
        Creates a new module identifier using the specified name and slot. A slot allows for multiple modules to exist with the same name. The main usage pattern for this is to differentiate between two incompatible release streams of a module. Normally all module definitions wind up in the "main" slot. An unspecified or null slot will result in placement in the "main" slot. Unless you have a true need for a slot, it should not be specified. When in doubt use the {create(String) method instead.
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the module
        slot - the slot this module belongs in
        Returns:
        the identifier

      • create

        public static ModuleIdentifier create​(String name)
        Deprecated.
        Creates a new module identifier using the specified name.
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the module
        Returns:
        the identifier
