Represents a product extension to the core FileNet P8 Content Engine components. These extensions consist of properties and/or classes to support a specific feature. Add-ons can be non-FileNet products that are compatible with FileNet P8, or they can be FileNet-supplied and provide additional functionality.

You can create an AddOn object by calling CreateInstance on the Factory.AddOn class. Creating an add-on automatically registers it in the FileNet P8 Global Configuration Data (GCD) database. A registered add-on can then be:

  • Installed during new object store creation.
  • Installed on an existing object store.
