Available requests for JViews Diagrammer, JViews Maps and JViews TGO

JViews Diagrammer, JViews Maps and JViews TGO share the same types of requests.
For detailed information on Servlet/Servlet support classes, see Servlet and component classes.
The following sections provide tables of possible parameters with their expected values for each request. If a parameter must exist in a request, this is indicated by a value true in the Required column.. The Expected value column gives predefined options in JViews components. When security checking is enabled, these expected values are compared with the values sent by the user request. A true value in the Compared by default column indicates that the comparison is performed by default.
