CoClasses and Classes Description
UtilityNetwork A container for describing a utility network.

Remarks

The only elements in a network that can have flow are edge elements. Junction elements do not have flow.

Flow is maintained in the logical network and not the geometric network. Unlike creating flags, which is done on a feature in the geometric network, changing flow direction on individual elements requires that you directly manipulate the logical network.

This operation requires that you make the network editable. You can do this either through an edit session, using the Editor, or you can use the IWorkspaceEdit interface to edit the workspace of the logical network.
