Code Templates
Although its is not very difficult to start developing code modules, a convenient way to generate the starting Java code is by using the templates in the ECM Developer plug-in. There are templates for the following code module types:
- Event Actions
- Lifecycle Action Handler
- Document Classifier
Before you start programming the code modules make sure that you have a reference to the Content Engine API, the file Jace.jar, in you project build path. The code modules can be generated by using the File > New > Other command and next selecting the desired Java class in the Content Engine category:

In the next page of the wizard the necessary information can be supplied to generate the Java class:

If the wizard is finished the Java class will be generated at the desired location:

The wizards for the other code modules work in the same way.
