CoClasses that implement INetworkDataset

Remarks

A NetworkDataset is a collection of feature classes that participate in a network relationship. Each feature class has a topological role in the network and a network may have multiple feature classes in the same role. A feature dataset may have multiple networks but a feature class can only belong to one network, either a network dataset or geometric network. A Feature class in the network dataset is called a network source.  Network datasets may also have attributes which are used for solving against a network dataset.  Network dataset sources can also participate within a Topology.

The IDatasetContainer2 interface should be used for creating and opening network datasets.  The INetworkBuild interface should be used for adding or removing sources or attributes from a network dataset and for building a network dataset.
