Source and Target Objects

A SmartLink connects Source SmartObjects and Target SmartObjects. A Source object can have one or more active Target objects, but a Target object usually has only one active Source object. For example, a single SmartContainer (Container–Source) might contain a SmartDataViewer, a SmartDataBrowser, and a SmartPanel, each of which is a Container–Target.

Sometimes, a single object can be on either end of a SmartLink type. For example:

As you design an application screen, you determine how SmartObjects link together. However, different SmartObjects have rules about which SmartLinks they allow. For details on what SmartLinks are allowed for each SmartObject, see SmartObjects."
