ScalaInstance

```
public interface ScalaInstance
```
A Scala instance encapsulates all the information that is bound to a concrete Scala version, like the ClassLoader or all the JARs required for Scala compilation: library jar, compiler jar and others. Both a `ClassLoader` and the jars are required because the compiler's boot classpath requires the location of the library and compiler jar on the classpath to compile any Scala program and macros. NOTE: A "jar" can actually be any valid classpath entry.

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Deprecated Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`java.lang.String`	`actualVersion()` The unique identifier for this Scala instance, usually obtained (but not necessarily) from `compiler.properties` files.
`java.io.File[]`	`allJars()` All jar files provided by this Scala instance.
`java.io.File`	`compilerJar()` Only `jars` can be reliably provided for modularized Scala.
`java.io.File`	`libraryJar()` Only `jars` can be reliably provided for modularized Scala.
`java.lang.ClassLoader`	`loader()` A class loader providing access to the classes and resources in the library and compiler jars.
`java.lang.ClassLoader`	`loaderLibraryOnly()` A class loader providing access to the classes and resources in the library.
`java.io.File[]`	`otherJars()` Deprecated. Only `jars` can be reliably provided for modularized Scala (since 0.13.0).
`java.lang.String`	`version()` Scala version for this `ScalaInstance`.
