@Contract public interface ExternalModuleCreator
Implementors are responsible for creating an ActivatorCreatorRequest that can be then passed to the ActivatorCreator based upon the scanning and reflective introspection of a set of classes found in an external jar module. This involves a two-step process of first preparing to create using prepareToCreateExternalModule(io.helidon.pico.tools.ExternalModuleCreatorRequest), followed by taking the response and proceeding to call ActivatorCreator.createModuleActivators(io.helidon.pico.tools.ActivatorCreatorRequest).
