Introduction

SDL WorldServer lets users extend core functionality through the creation of custom components. These components can be integrated into WorldServer, and can be used in conjunction with, or in place of, existing WorldServer components.

The primary goal of the WorldServer SDK is to provide a stable, clearly defined, and welldocumented layer of APIs for extending WorldServer functionality and for integrating WorldServer with other custom or third-party applications. The APIs in the WorldServer SDK shield developers from the internal WorldServer APIs and guarantee backward compatibility between WorldServer releases. The WorldServer SDK is effectively a compliance agreement between SDL Language Technologies and software integrators. SDL development of the WorldServer SDK seeks to expose access to all areas of the product that are deemed useful from an integration perspective.
