Extensions

Introduction

To get as loosely coupled to Enovia data model as possible use extensions to just tell schema-tool to make sure the defined entities are added to the specified administrative object. E.g. if to modify the global toolbar by adding a command to it just define an extension without defining the complete menu, this way an upgrade will be easy as the Enovia definition could change without affecting the schema-tool definition. It is also easier to see the intention of the modification.
