IContainerHandle (Mixin 0.16.5-0.8.7-1 API)

All Superinterfaces:

IMixinConfigSource

All Known Implementing Classes:

ContainerHandleURI, ContainerHandleVirtual
```
public interface IContainerHandle
extends IMixinConfigSource
```
Interface for container handles. Previously resources considered by Mixin were indexed by URI but in order to provide more flexibility the container handle system now wraps URIs in a more expressive object, and provides support for both virtual containers and nested container resolution.
