Extension scripts

For each extension, an extension script is generated. This extension script contains the hooks that are programmed in the Extension Modeler and other generated functions. They are called by the different tools engines to do the required actions of the extension. Those extension scripts are DLLs (libraries), which are stored in the Extension package (tx).

This table shows the modules within the tx-package that are reserved for extension scripts:

Module

Description

esb Extension Scripts for BODs
esm Extension Scripts for Menus
esp Extension Scrips for Processes
esr Extension Scripts for Reports
ess Extension Scripts for Sessions
est Extension Scripts for Tables

Note that all module codes starting with es are reserved for future use.

Extension scripts are visible in Infor LN Studio and can be debugged using LN Studio, see Extension debugging.

We do not recommend that you make changes in the generated scripts. The changes are lost after a change of the extension in the Extension Modeler.
