Manage extensions for this composition unit [Collection]

Add composite bundle extensions to, or remove them from, a composition unit that contains an enterprise OSGi application.

After you import the enterprise bundle archive (EBA) file for your OSGi application as an asset, you can update versions of existing bundles but you cannot add extra bundles to the asset. However, after we have added the asset as a composition unit to a business-level application, you can extend the business-level application by adding one or more composite bundles to the composition unit. If you extend a deployed OSGi application, the composite bundle, including its constituent bundles, is downloaded when you save your changes.

To update an extension to one with newer constituent bundles, you remove the composite bundle from the composition unit then add a new version of the composite bundle.
