| append package (BC-DWB-TOO-PAK) |
Package that enhances the package check and functionality of an existingpackage
In an append package, existing repository objects can be enhanced and new repository objects created. There are two types of append package: enhancement append packages (created manually) and generation append packages (generated automatically).
An enhancement append package always has three types of interface at itsdisposal:
- Its own package interfaces
- Append package interfaces
- Client interfaces
In contrast, generation append packages can only use client interfaces. If permitted by the original package, a generating service can create client interfaces to a generation append package. This interface can then be used to access the generated coding externally.
