State

enum State : Enum<ModuleDescriptor.State>

An enumeration describing the loading state of a module. Modules are created in the Loading state, and reach the Loaded state when all of its statements have executed. If the module is asked to unload, its descendants must first arrange to be unloaded, then the module state transitions to Unloading, and ultimately Unloaded.

Entries

The module has not yet been fully loaded, and additional changes to it are still permitted.

Loaded

The module is fully loaded, and additional changes are not permitted.

Unloading

The module is in the process of unloading. Unloading activities are permitted, but new definitions are not.

Unloaded

The module has been fully unloaded.
