Introduction
This document describes the functionality of SAP ECTR OSGi.
To create a standardized API for SAP ECTR, a OSGi concept for SAP ECTR 5.1 was introduced. SAP ECTR utilizes an external library in order to implement or consume services via the OSGi framework. The OSGi services on hand allow for the creation of Java extensions for the SAP ECTR frontend.
Extensions can be implemented by third parties (customers, partners, ...).
