All Implemented Interfaces:

Comparable<ModuleRef>
```
public class ModuleRef
extends Object
implements Comparable<ModuleRef>
```
Work with modules using reflection, until support for JDK 8 and earlier is removed.

```
- Method Detail
  - getModuleName
```
public String getModuleName()
```
    Returns the module name, i.e. moduleReference.descriptor().name().
  - getModuleReference
```
public Object getModuleReference()
```
    Returns the module reference (type ModuleReference).
  - getModuleLayer
```
public Object getModuleLayer()

```
    Returns the list of packages in the module.
  - getModuleLocation
```
public URI getModuleLocation()
```
    Returns the module location, i.e. moduleReference.location(). Returns null for modules that do not have a location.
  - isSystemModule
```
public boolean isSystemModule()
```
    Returns true if this module's location is a non-"file:/" ("jrt:/") URI, or if it has no location URI, or if it uses the (null) bootstrap ClassLoader, or if the module name starts with a system prefix ("java.", "jre.", etc.).

  - getModuleLocationFile
```
public File getModuleLocationFile()
```
    Returns the module location as a File, i.e. new File(moduleReference.location()). Returns null for modules that do not have a location, or for system ("jrt:/") modules.
  - getClassLoader
```
public ClassLoader getClassLoader()
```
    Returns the classloader for the module, i.e. moduleLayer.findLoader(moduleReference.descriptor().name()).
  - equals
```
public boolean equals(Object obj)

    Overrides:
    
    toString in class Object
  - compareTo
```
public int compareTo(ModuleRef o)
```
    Specified by:
    
    compareTo in interface Comparable<ModuleRef>
