Remarks

Implement IExtensibleObject to enable aggregation of extensions.

For example, if you are implementing a TreeNode class and want to allow external code to add annotations and methods to some instances of TreeNode, you can have TreeNode implement IExtensibleObject. This enables code that uses TreeNode to add objects that implement IExtensibleObject to the Extensions collection.

There are four extensible objects in Windows Communication Foundation (WCF):

For a discussion about how to create extension to work with these objects, see Extensible Objects.
