PROBLEM

 

When I access the 5.0 documentation when looking to adapt AWM extension points, I get the following instruction:

"The AWM API and extension points are being modified. Contact SupportLine for information on how to extend application behaviour.”

 

SOLUTION

The correct documentation for this topic will be correctly included in the 5.0 Patch Update 2 release. In the meantime, most of the 4.0 documentation is current:

https://www.microfocus.com/documentation/enterprise-developer/ed40/ED-Eclipse/GUID-157DDD66-9385-4514-8332-DEB33D17A138.html

 

The only major part that has been changed is the AWM Java interface IToolExecutor that was referenced by a toolType function package extension, as mentioned in the V4.0 docs here:

https://www.microfocus.com/documentation/enterprise-developer/ed40/ED-Eclipse/GUID-DEAB91CE-B0C3-4348-9D17-859062BEDE0F.html

 

The toolType “class” attribute has been deprecated and a new “toolExecutor” attribute is available, which needs to reference the new tool executor interface IToolExecutor2.

 

 

The JavaDoc around the extension point and IToolExecutor2 is complete and will be available in the V5.0 Eclipse products. It is attached here for reference.   “index.html” within the expanded JavaDoc will show an overview of all available classes and interfaces.
