Package com.sap.portal.genericcreator Description

Provides interfaces and classes that enable you to execute an XML script in order to automate content creation and to perform other actions.

Creating content (such as iViews, pages, systems, translation lists and desktops) and performing actions (such as setting permissions and deleting content) via administration tools may require many steps. Instead, the portal enables you to define, in XML, many objects and their attributes, and then execute the XML to create all the objects in one step.

The API provides the same functionality as the XML Content and Actions administrator interface.
