Pseudo Links
The IFD automatically derives external links and displays them using solid directed
lines. The IFD also enables you to manually define external links between two
components. These are called pseudo links. A pseudo link is displayed using a
dotted directed line, as shown in the following example.
Pseudo link
Pseudo links represent data flow relationships that cannot be derived statically at
design time. They help you to visualize data flow relationships that are established
at execution time. The IFD does not embed pseudo links that you define into the
process control information, which drives Command or Event Servers. Pseudo
links serve a visual purpose only.
