## Interface DependencyResolveDetails

-     @Incubating
      public interface DependencyResolveDetails

  Provides details about a dependency when it is resolved. Provides means to manipulate dependency metadata when it is resolved.
  Since:
    1.4

- - ### Method Summary

    Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `ModuleVersionSelector` | `getRequested()` The module, before it is resolved.
    `ModuleVersionSelector` | `getTarget()` The target module selector used to resolve the dependency.
    `void` | `useTarget(Object notation)` Allows to override the details of the dependency (see `getTarget()`) when it is resolved (see `getRequested()`).
    `void` | `useVersion(String version)` Allows to override the version when the dependency `getRequested()` is resolved.

- - ### Method Detail

    - #### getRequested

          ModuleVersionSelector getRequested()

      The module, before it is resolved. The requested module does not change even if there are multiple dependency resolve rules that manipulate the dependency metadata.

    - #### useVersion

          void useVersion(String version)

      Allows to override the version when the dependency `getRequested()` is resolved. Can be used to select a version that is different than requested. Forcing modules via `ResolutionStrategy.force(Object...)` uses this capability. Configuring a version different than requested will cause `getTarget()` method return a target module with updated target version.

      If you need to change not only the version but also group or name please use the `useTarget(Object)` method.

      Parameters:
        `version` - to use when resolving this dependency, cannot be null. It is valid to configure the same version as requested.

    - #### useTarget

          void useTarget(Object notation)

      Allows to override the details of the dependency (see `getTarget()`) when it is resolved (see `getRequested()`). This method can be used to change the dependency before it is resolved, e.g. change group, name or version (or all three of them). In many cases users are interested in changing the version. For such scenario you can use the `useVersion(String)` method.
      Parameters:
        `notation` - the notation that gets parsed into an instance of `ModuleVersionSelector`. You can pass Strings like 'org.gradle:gradle-core:1.4', Maps like [group: 'org.gradle', name: 'gradle-core', version: '1.4'], or instances of ModuleVersionSelector.
      Since:
        1.5

    - #### getTarget

          ModuleVersionSelector getTarget()

      The target module selector used to resolve the dependency. Never returns null. Target module is updated when methods like `useVersion(String)` are used.
