Yes, hook point is the entry in the template's trigger, which can be hooked when necessary by the library procedure attached to the module through the preference MODLIB.
With the preferences BLKTGS and ITMTGS and forms variables SYSTEM.TRIGGER_BLOCK, SYSTEM.TRIGGER_ITEM you can control the execution point of your code.
If you prepare such template in which you hook all triggers of ORACLE Forms and put your code in the module specific libraries, you don't need to modify your code after the generation process. HEADSTART is the commercial product based on this simple idea.
