Hello,

I'd like to learn more about writing a custom component (a DSC), does any one know if there is documentation/guide/tutorial on how to start on it? Please share your comments.

Thanks in advance,

Hello,

Thank you for all replies, they are very helpful for starting to learn more about DSC.

I do have another question, is it possible to re-write an already built-in service to customize it in a different way. e.g. The Service Operation "Read Document" in Foundation > FileUtilsService to accept a different type of its Input?

Thanks,

Han Dao

That would only be possible if you had the source code for the original DSC.  I believe Adobe does give it out for some components as examples/samples, but not for all.

If you don't have the source, then you'll have to add a new DSC to add your functionality.
