Hi ,

I am going through the Liferay Hooks Concept , one common overide through hooks concept i see that is done for this service-type UserLocalService .
Could anybody please let me know why to override this class .UserLocalService with the user defined type .

I am new to Liferay , could anybody please point out any point for doing so , i am sorry if this is a weird question . Thanks for reading .

<service>
<service-type>com.liferay.portal.service.UserLocalService</service-type>
<service-impl>com.MyUserLocalService</service-impl>
</service>

Different countries may have different model of user information.

And different organizations can have different attributes they want to expose in the user object. Hooking UserLocalServiceUtil allows an organization to include these customizations.

Hooks are used for more than overriding the UserLocalService implementation. JSP overrides, replacing/extending other services, etc. Just because you found a bunch through a google search is no indication that this is the only thing they're used for.
