Creating and using a visual extension

Creating and using a visual extension

In general, you follow the same steps to create and use a visual extension that you do to create a nonvisual extension:

Step 1: Decide on a feature to implement.

Step 2: Define the classes and functions in the extension.

Step 3: Declare visual classes and global functions.

Step 4: Implement native classes.

Step 5: Export methods to create class instances.

Step 6: Build and use a PBX.

Step 7: Use the visual extension in an application.
