Hi All,
Following Mathieu's question about "OFBiz public API" and the points he already
mentioned I decided to create a new thread.
I don't know what will happen with the other tread (mostly about
removing/replacing component-load.xml). That's not the subject here.

<<My broad understanding of what is part of OFBiz public API is:
- the plugin mechanism

Engine)
- the HTTP routing mechanism (Event Handler)
- the various configuration files location in “{component}/config”
directories.>>
I tend to agree with this list. From the top of my head, I'd add (maybe not a
the same level and maybe we need to define level/s)
1. Obviously, the Java API !
2. All things (why not?) supported by XSD files.
It includes Entity and Services Engines, not all feature are
documented/supported by XSD files though.
It also includes component-loader.xsd and ofbiz-component.xsd which are
somehow parts of the subject of the other thread
3. OFBiz Gradle tasks
I don't know what to say about Groovy scripts which are replacing simple-method
services.
What else?
Jacques
