## Interface ModuleReference

- All Superinterfaces:
    `Mirror`, `ObjectReference`, `Value`

      public interface ModuleReference
      extends ObjectReference

  A module in the target VM.

  Any method on `ModuleReference` which directly or indirectly takes `ModuleReference` as a parameter may throw `VMDisconnectedException` if the target VM is disconnected and the `VMDisconnectEvent` has been or is available to be read from the `EventQueue`.

  Any method on `ModuleReference` which directly or indirectly takes `ModuleReference` as a parameter may throw `VMOutOfMemoryException` if the target VM has run out of memory.

  Any method on `ModuleReference` or which directly or indirectly takes `ModuleReference` as a parameter may throw `InvalidModuleException` if the mirrored module has been unloaded. Not all target virtual machines support this class. Use `VirtualMachine.canGetModuleInfo()` to determine if the class is supported.
