Hi All,
How to override/change existing methods of SocialActivityCounterFinderImpl.java of OOTB portlet?
Actually I want to change some code of existing methods of this class.
Can we change this by using hook or any other easiest way is available for that?

You can override/change it using ext-plugin, but usage of ext-plugin is not recommendable as it makes upgrade very difficult.

Refer: Link for ext-plugin.

Hi,

Yes, that's why i am not using ext plugin and trying with HOOK instead,

I have implemented in below manner referencing from https://www.liferay.com/web/amos.fong/blog/-/blogs/minimizing-the-ext-environment

1. create custom hook for that in that liferay-hook.xml

......
<service>
    <service-type>
			    com.liferay.portlet.social.service.persistence.SocialActivityCounterFinder
    </service-type>
    <service-impl>
   				com.softwareag.communities.liferay.socialactivitycounter.SocialActivityCounterFinderImpl
    </service-impl>
</service>	
.....

2.Create new package and create new java class under this package SocialActivityCounterFinderImpl

..
public class SocialActivityCounterFinderImpl extends SocialActivityCounterWrapper {

	public SocialActivityCounterFinderImpl(
			SocialActivityCounter socialActivityCounter) {
		super(socialActivityCounter);
	}

	

	
	public java.util.List<java.lang.long> findU_ByG_N(long groupId,
			java.lang.String[] names, int start, int end)
			throws com.liferay.portal.kernel.exception.SystemException {
		
		System.out.println("-------------------Inside Hook method invoked.-------------------");
		....
		....
		....
			
		
	}
}

</java.lang.long>

Note : In referencing URL modify methods of com.liferay.portal.service.XXX package class but I need to modify under the com.liferay.portlet.social.service.persistence.XXX.
It is possible using HOOK?
