These objects must be very efficient to create.
Like for the underlying taxonomy elements, relationship creation is designed not to fail, but the type may be of an unexpected "catch-all relationship type". There is an exception to this leniency, though, and that is that each arc must have an XLink arcole attribute, or else an exception is thrown. This can be circumvented in practice by using an arc filter when instantiating a taxonomy object.
Unlike relationship creation (with the missing arcrole exception), instance methods on relationships may fail, however.
This relationship type hierarchy knows about standard relationships, including dimensional relationships. It also knows about a few specific generic relationships. It does not know about table and formula relationships, which are only seen as non-standard or unknown relationships.
Each relationship is either a eu.cdevreeze.tqa.base.relationship.StandardRelationship, a eu.cdevreeze.tqa.base.relationship.NonStandardRelationship, or an eu.cdevreeze.tqa.base.relationship.UnknownRelationship.
