Creating Extension Points

An extension point represents a method on a Java class where a ruleset can be executed. These methods can be extended by associating an executable ruleset to the extension point.

To create an extension point:

1. From the Studio menu, select New, then select Inventory, then select Administration, and then select Extension Point.

   The Extension Point Wizard dialog box appears.

2. From the Project drop-down list, select the project where the entity is to reside.

3. In the Name field, enter the name of the extension point.

4. (Optional) Select a location for the new extension point.

   By default, Design Studio saves the entity to your default workspace location. You can enter a folder name in the Folder field or select a location different from the system-provided default. To select a different location:

   1. Click the Folder field Browse button.

   2. Navigate to the directory in which to save the entity.

   3. Click OK.

5. Click Finish.
