Extending/Overriding D2FS service through Service Plugin

If developer wants to create a customization which needs to override/extend the existing functionality of a D2FS service, the developer can create custom class with the (D2FS Services Name)Plugin.java which extends the D2FS service class and implements ID2fsPlugin class. For an example -

package com.opentext.d2.smartview.d2svdialogs.webfs.dialog;

import com.emc.d2fs.dctm.web.services.ID2fsPlugin;
import com.emc.d2fs.dctm.web.services.dialog.D2DialogService;
import com.emc.d2fs.models.context.Context;
import com.emc.d2fs.models.attribute.Attribute;
import com.emc.d2fs.models.dialog.Dialog;
import java.util.List;

public class D2DialogServicePlugin extends D2DialogService implements ID2fsPlugin {
    ...
    public Dialog validDialog(Context context, String id, String dialogName, List<Attribute> parameters) throws Exception {
        //custom logic
        
        //If the following line is executed during an invocation then it becomes an extension, otherwise it becomes an override.
        return super.validDialog(context, id, dialogName, parameters);
    }
    ...
}

Following services can only be extended/overriden for the supported methods. Below table lists both overidable and non-overridable methods for D2-Smartview
