Representing subnetworks

Subnetworks allow you to create applications that display a network inside another network. They are created automatically by the JViews TGO network component when you define a containment relationship between objects in the data source.

A subnetwork can be defined as any business object with child objects in the network component. You can display it either collapsed or expanded in the network component.

  • In the collapsed state, the subnetwork is represented as a single object.

  • In the expandedstate, the subnetwork is displayed with all the objects contained in it.
