From a C++ perspective, all extensions/module implement APExGetProperty() that tell ArcPad what those extensions do. When we load an extension/module record what each extensions's responses were to APExGetProperty() and save them to ExtensionPrefs.apx.

In <EXTENSION> tag, users can set the value of two attributes: delayload and enabled.All other attributes are information of reponses to APExGetProperty() saved by ArcPad when extensions are loaded.

Part of an ArcPad Extension Preference file (.apx) that disabled the Streetmap extension and delayloads all other extensions
