System and subsystem components

  • The symbols next to the component names in the Navigator indicate the type of component. Even though both systems and subsystems have the same symbol, it is their position in the Navigator that determines the reference. For example, system symbols always appear directly under a system definition file symbol. A subsystem symbol can appear anywhere below a system symbol. Right-clicking on these symbols yields a different context menu depending on where the symbol is located.
  • A question mark is displayed on the subsystem component icon when unresolved references exist. An unresolved reference is when the subsystem references a system that does not exist.
