Attribute References Navigation
In TDL, we can have the same attribute under multiple definition types where the behavior of attribute has a unique significance for each definition type.
Attribute Reference Navigation is used to perform Attribute Search within a particular definition type.In other words, this search allows the user to find all the instances where an attribute falls under a particular definition type. Attribute Reference Navigation helps the programmer to quickly locate the desired position by short listing the number of occurrences.
