You can add custom objects and menus to the Oracle Analytic Workspace Manager user interface. You can customize Analytic Workspace Manager by doing the following:
Adding custom reports and calculation templates to the navigation tree.
Adding selections to the menu that appears when the user right-clicks a navigation tree object.
Providing graphical user interface elements for viewing or editing relational database objects or OLAP objects, or both.
Chapter 1, "Customizing With XML Documents" describes how you can add reports and calculation templates to the navigation tree by using XML documents. It also describes how you can specify an Analytic Workspace Manager Java plug-in within an XML document.
Chapter 2, "Introducing Analytic Workspace Manager Plug-ins" describes the Java plug-in interfaces that Analytic Workspace Manager supports and demonstrates how to develop a plug-in. With a plug-in you can add items to the right-click menu of an Analytic Workspace Manager navigation tree object. You can also provide a viewer or an editor plug-in that displays in the Analytic Workspace Manager property inspector.
This document describes the Analytic Workspace Manager XML and Java plug-in interfaces and provides simple examples of implementations of them.
