Appendix B Library Handling Extension Libraries

Extending Object Type Definitions
If the extension library needs to add new type rules for the object types in the base
library, e.g. a Copy-to-all-instances rule for an aspect added by the extension library,
they could not be set up in the normal Object Type Definition aspect. It always
belongs to the base library and the base library can have been released when the
extension library is loaded. The extension library, in such cases, should include
Object Type Extension Definition aspects for the types where additional type rules
are needed.
Creating a New Extension Library
To create a new versioned extension library follow the steps below:
1. Go to the Library Structure and select the base library that should be extended.
2. Select New Object from the context menu.
