PluginJarProcessor (UberFire Backend Server 7.70.0.Final API)

java.lang.Object
- org.uberfire.backend.server.plugins.engine.PluginJarProcessor

```
@Dependent
public class PluginJarProcessor
extends Object
```
Processes and activates deployed plugin jars. The plugin jars can contain GWT .js files, Uberfire Runtime Plugins and html templates. The corresponding GWT .js files are registered with the PluginProcessor and are added to the host page's <head> element by Errai, so the plugin scripts execute before the web application's main script runs. This is required to ensure plugins and their managed beans are discoverable by Errai's bean manager when the main application bootstraps. Uberfire Runtime Plugins are loaded after Errai and Uberfire bootstrap.
