URI

The relative location of the module within the application EAR.

Alternate deployment descriptor

The alternate deployment descriptor for the module as defined in the application deployment descriptor according to the J2EE specification.

Starting weight

The order in which modules are started. Lower weighted modules are started before higher weighted modules.

Class loader mode

Whether the class loader should search in the parent class loader or in the application class loader first to load a class. The standard for JDK class loaders and WebSphere class loaders is Parent First. By specifying Parent Last, your application can override classes contained in the parent class loader, but this action can potentially result in ClassCastException or LinkageErrors if you have mixed use of overriden classes and non-overriden classes.

The options are Parent First and Parent Last. The default is to search in the parent class loader before searching in the application class loader to load a class.

Data type String
Default Parent First
