contentTypeId - the content type id e.g. "com.ibm.xtools.comparemerge.library.libraryContentType"
class - name of a class that implements com.ibm.xtools.comparemerge.emf.delta.deltagenerator.CompositeDeltaStrategy

Examples:

The following is an example of a compare/merge composite delta strategy extension for emx,dnx,tpx and uml2 file extensions (extensions "emx,dnx,tpx,uml2"):


<extension
    name="Example Composite Delta Strategy"
    point="com.ibm.xtools.comparemerge.emf.delta.compositedeltastrategies">
  <compositedeltastrategy
      extension="emx,dnx,tpx,uml2"
      class="com.ibm.xtools.comparemerge.emf.ExampleCompositeDeltaStrategy"/>
</extension>
