.cif files for countries in uber cart

vaishnavig - April 29, 2008 - 07:22

hi,
i am using uber cart module.
In this module there is a .cif for each country.
In the file there are functions countryname_install(),countryname_update(),countryname_uninstall() ,which are similar to any .install file.
I am not getting that why these file extensions have set as .cif?
what is the purpose or advantage of this extension as the file structure in same as .install file.
can anybody explain me that?
Thanks

These aren't modules, but

These aren't modules, but they were made to imitate the module installation system. The .cif files are separate so you can pick and choose which countries to enable on your Ubercart site. From a development standpoint, this also makes it so people are able to contribute countries instead of me adding data for all the countries in the world myself.
