BusinessWorks Extension Distribution

A BusinessWorks extension distribution is the archive that contains the BusinessWorks plugin used in a BusinessWorks extension Grid Library. It is a Grid Library, consisting of all files that would normally be added to a BusinessWorks installation when a plugin is installed, plus metadata files, packaged in a compressed file.

The following illustration shows the directory structure of the Salesforce example extension distribution Grid Library archive:

The following illustration shows the metadata files in the top-level directory of the Grid Library. Note that there are either two or three metadata files. If the BusinessWorks plugin needs an extension, three files are required; otherwise, only two are required.
