Viewing Project Data Flow in the Flow View

The Flow view displays an interactive diagram of a project, or one of its modules, and all of the associated components. The Flow view shows the relationships between all the components, including CCL statements and submodules, data streams and adapters, and external databases.

The following table describes the graphic elements of the Flow view:

External databases.

Input, output, and local streams. Right-clicking a stream allows you to open a viewer for that stream.

Regular and public named windows. Right-clicking a named window allows you to open a viewer for that window.

CCL statements inside the current module. Each blue box represents a separate CCL statement. A portion of the statement text appears inside the box.

Submodule of the current query module.

The Flow view also displays:


These run-time statistics can be turned on and off by clicking Show Runtime Information on the View menu.

Right-clicking a group of CCL statements in the Flow view shows the statements' detail. Right-clicking other objects displays the same shortcut menu as when you right-click the same component in the Explorer view.
