For a package to be usable in the XCDL component framework it must conform to certain rules imposed by that framework. Packages must be distributed in a form that is understood by the component repository administration tool. There must be a top-level XCDL file which describes the package to the component framework. There are certain limitations related to how a package gets built, so that the package can still be used in a variety of host environments. In addition to these rules, the component framework provides a number of guidelines. Packages do not have to conform to the guidelines, but sticking to them can simplify certain operations.
