/**
 * <h3>Java Module Dependencies</h3>
 * Note that if you are using GWT, GWT itself also has an Apache 2.0 license, however tools and
 * test environments that you may use during development have different license (such as Eclipse -
 * Eclipse Public License).  Also, specific GWT widgets, not required by Smart GWT,  have licenses
 * different from core GWT (such as JFreeChart's LGPL license).  See  <a
 * href='http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/terms.html' target='_blank'>Google's summary of
 * terms</a> for details. <p> If you are using {@link com.smartgwt.client.docs.ServerScript server
 * scripting} with the Javascript language, dependencies are JVM-specific.  Java versions earlier
 * than 6 do not include JSR223 support  at all, so server scripting is not an option with those
 * JVMs.  Versions of the Oracle and  OpenJDK JVMs from 6 to 14 inclusive include a JS engine by
 * default - Rhino in Java 6 and 7,  and Nashorn from 8 to 14 - so Javascript server scripting
 * works out of the box with no  dependencies with those versions.  Oracle and OpenJDK JVMs from
 * version 15 onwards do not include JS support automatically.  However, we ship the standalone
 * OpenJDK implementation of Nashorn with Smart GWT, so Javascript scripting still works out of
 * the box as long as you leave that dependency in place.  You can also leave that dependency in
 * place with JDK  versions from 8 to 14 - the OpenJDK implementation will mask the built-in
 * Oracle  implementation, but you should not notice any difference.  See the Server Scripting 
 * documentation for more details of your options with this. <p> {@link
 * com.smartgwt.client.docs.MavenSupport Maven} users should generally refer to the POMs bundled
 * with the  SDK, and installed for them by the official  <a
 * href='http://github.smartclient.com/isc-maven-plugin/' target='_blank'>Isomorphic plugin for
 * Maven</a>.  For others,  the following is a short description of the functionality contained in
 * each  Smart GWT server JAR, and a link to the documentation listing its dependencies.  Please 
 * refer to that documentation for more detail on the dependency graph, including version 
 * numbers, transitive dependencies, and licensing. <P> <style>   .jmd-module  {     width: 140px;

 * Please note that both commons-collections-3.x and commons-collections4-4.x        are required
 * and safe to include side by side in the CLASSPATH (different third party        libs rely on
 * one or the other).  The same is true of commons-lang and commons-lang3.       <div
