Adding a CLR-based GlobalChangeSpec to Your Visual Studio Project

Use Global Change Spec (CLR) Catalog Item

You begin creating a global change whose business logic is powered by .NET code by adding a new catalog item to a catalog project in Visual Studio. Select the Global Change Spec (CLR) catalog item template to create a CLR-implemented global change operation. Doing so will add a new XML file to your project along with a CLR class file.

Figure: Add the Global Change Spec (CLR) catalog item to the Visual Studio Project.

Figure: CLR Global Change Specs refer to a CLR class that handles processing

Figure: After you add the catalog item, 2 files are added to your project: the XML spec file and a boilerplate CLR class file .
