Strategy #1: Change PFE Objects

The extension layer is intended to allow us to make application specific changes without affecting the base class objects. There is no code in the extension layer objects, it is intended as a placeholder for any custom logic. The descendant objects in PFC are inherited from the ones in PFE. If you look at the PFC Examples application that came with PowerBuilder, they just renamed PFE libraries with APP prefix and put their code in those libraries.
