Creating links is necessary:
To create imported attributes.
To implement passing attribute value to a parameter of linked dictionary.
To fill the parameter with values from other dictionary.
Links between attributes can be created in empty and non-empty dictionaries. On creating links in a non-empty dictionary make sure that all values of the linked attribute are empty. Otherwise a link cannot be created.
NOTE. When HP Vertica DBMS is used on creating links, cascade deletion of dictionary elements is not supported due to DBMS constraints.
