What Are Xtypes And How Are They Useful In Aem? |
|
Answer» In the ExtJS LANGUAGE an xtype is a symbolic NAME given to a CLASS. In AEM these xtypes are WIDGETS that used in the creation of components. AEM comes with a bunch of widgets that are available out of the box. You can also create and define your own xtype to be used in AEM. An example of an xytpe is when you are creating your dialog for your component, and you want the author to be able to enter text, you would add a “cq:Widget” that has an xtype PROPERTY of “textfield”.
