public interface ContentComponent
extends WCMApiObject

The root interface in the Content Component hierarchy. ContentComponent is an interface to mark a component that can be held within a ContentComponentContainer.

A ContentComponent can exist only on Content, Site or SiteArea objects. A ContentComponent must live in a ContentComponentContainer - it cannot exist in the the repository as a separate object.

A content component has a one-to-one relationship with a ContentComponentContainer object, and consequently, with an object that can implements a ContentComponentContainer. This is different to a LibraryComponent as a LibraryComponent may be reused by different objects in the repository.

note: since v6.0.0, a ContentComponent is referred to as an "Element" in the Authoring UI.
