Members
| Member name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Unknown | The topology is unknown. | |
| Network | Link types of this topology have no restrictions and are non-directional. Links can have circular relationships. The link looks the same from both the forward end and the reverse end. | |
| DirectedNetwork | Link types of this topology are like those of WorkItemLinkType.Topology.Network topology, but they have directionality. You can specify a unique name that appears at each end of the link. The link looks different depending on which side you view it from. | |
| Dependency | Link types of this topology are like those of WorkItemLinkType.Topology.DirectedNetwork topology, but they have an additional constraint to prevent circular relationships. | |
| Tree | Link types of this topology have a tree shape. This topology enforces a one-to-many relationship and does not allow circularity. |
