Containers are groups of subgraphs sharing some common characteristic. Containers are usually created as a result of running a query on a Proximity database.
Containers in the database are represented by
CONTAINER elements, all of which
must be included in a single
CONTAINERS element. The
CONTAINER element includes a list
of subgraph items, subgraph attributes, and any nested containers
within the parent container.
<CONTAINERS>Attributes None.
