I was wondering how I would go about adding mechanics to a currently existing enchantment. I am trying to add functionality to the curse of binding in this case, so I figure I would have to make a class that extends from this enchantment right?

That's not how extending a class works.

Depending on what, exactly, you want to do, there are a number of ways to achieve it. You just have to tell us what you want to do.

Thanks for the response. The idea was to make it so an armor piece with the curse of binding enchantment would automatically equip to the player if it is in your inventory.

If you want it to be forced to stay equipped you would have to use the PlayerTickEvent and iterate through there inventory and upon finding one move it to the armor slot, but only if there already isn't one. And watch out for concurrent modification exceptions.

Greatly appreciated. Just wondering how I would establish the connection between the existing enchantment and the mechanics I want to add though.

Check if any of the Items in the players inventory as you iterate to see if they have the enchantment on them.

Oh, I got ya. I guess I was just overthinking how to do things. Thanks.

 

So, in general, I just need to make a new class that holds the functionality I want for the enchantment and register the event?

Yes. That should be it.
