## Interface SelfResolvingDependency

- All Superinterfaces:
    `Buildable`, `Dependency`
  All Known Subinterfaces:
    `FileCollectionDependency`, `ProjectDependency`

      public interface SelfResolvingDependency
      extends Dependency, Buildable

  A `SelfResolvingDependency` is a `Dependency` which is able to resolve itself, independent of a repository.

- - ### Method Detail

    - #### resolve

          java.util.Set<java.io.File> resolve()

      Resolves this dependency. A `ProjectDependency` is resolved with transitive equals true by this method.
      Returns:
        The files which make up this dependency.
      See Also:
        `resolve(boolean)`

    - #### resolve

          java.util.Set<java.io.File> resolve​(boolean transitive)

      Resolves this dependency by specifying the transitive mode. This mode has only an effect if the self resolved dependency is of type `ProjectDependency`. In this case, if transitive is `false`, only the self resolving dependencies of the project configuration which are no project dependencies are resolved. If transitive is set to true, other project dependencies belonging to the configuration of the resolved project dependency are resolved recursively.
      Parameters:
        `transitive` - Whether to resolve transitively. Has only an effect on a `ProjectDependency`
      Returns:
        The files which make up this dependency.
