>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MINIFICPP-1472
>             Project: Apache NiFi MiNiFi C++
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>            Reporter: Ferenc Gerlits
>            Priority: Minor

> Currently, extensions depend on {{minifi-core}}, which contains (almost) everything under {{libminifi}}.[1]
> We should separate out a {{minifi-extension-api}} library and a {{minifi-extension-utils}} library, and make sure only these are used by the extensions (and leave the rest in {{minifi-core}}).  The idea is that
>  * the {{api}} library would be stable (can only be broken at major releases);
>  * the {{utils}} library is mainly aimed at our own extensions, and it could change at each release – but users are free to use it if they are willing to recompile for every release.
> For this step, the new libraries can remain static.
> TODO: this task may need to be broken down further.
>  
> [1] the one thing it doesn't is {{ProcessorUtils}}, for no clear reason (probably history); that can be moved inside {{minifi-core}} as the first step of this task
