  void version​(Action<? super MutableVersionConstraint> configureAction)

  Configures the version constraint for this dependency constraint.

  Parameters:

  configureAction - the configuration action for the module version

• getReason

  @Nullable
  java.lang.String getReason()

  Returns a reason why this dependency constraint should be used, in particular with regards to its version. The dependency report will use it to explain why a specific dependency was selected, or why a specific dependency version was used.

  Returns:

  a reason to use this dependency constraint

  Since:

  4.6

• because

  void because​(@Nullable
               java.lang.String reason)

  Sets the reason why this dependency constraint should be used.

  Since:

  4.6

• getAttributes

  AttributeContainer getAttributes()

  Returns the attributes for this constraint. Mutation of the attributes of a constraint must be done through the attributes(Action) method.

  Specified by:

  getAttributes in interface HasAttributes

  Returns:

  the attributes container for this dependency

  Since:

  4.8

• attributes

  DependencyConstraint attributes​(Action<? super AttributeContainer> configureAction)

  Mutates the attributes of this constraint. Attributes are used during dependency resolution to select the appropriate target variant, in particular when a single component provides different variants.

  Specified by:

  attributes in interface HasConfigurableAttributes<DependencyConstraint>

  Parameters:

  configureAction - the attributes mutation action

  Since:

  4.8

• getVersionConstraint

  VersionConstraint getVersionConstraint()

  Returns the version constraint to be used during selection.

  Returns:
