| <h3>Use Cases</h3> |
| <answer id="arch-usecases"> |
| |
| <p> |
| Different technology support modules will supply definitions of different |
| kinds of libraries, e.g. Java JARs, that may be reused in user projects. |
| Modules may register library predefinitions to wrap libraries they bundle. |
| Project type providers can refer to available libraries in customizer dialogs. |
| </p> |
| |
| </answer> |
| <h3>Exported Interfaces</h3> |
| |
| This table lists all of the module exported APIs |
| with |
| defined stability classifications. It is generated |
| based on answers to questions about the architecture |
| of the module. <a href="architecture-summary.html">Read them all</a>... |
