Understanding the Introspection Plan Creation Phase
After you have fetched the complete list of resource IDs (see Understanding the Resource ID Fetching Phase), you are ready to select the resources to introspect; that is, create an introspection plan (Introspecting a Data Source).
Loading resource names for a large data source can take a long time, so TDV lets you choose resources to introspect and drill down into as soon as their names are visible.
For container resources selected in the Add/Remove Resource dialog box, check the Detect New Resources During Re-Introspection check box under Properties on the right.
Some resources (most commonly the container resources within relational data sources) provide filter property options: New Resource Table Name Filter(s) and New Resource Procedure Name Filter(s). These filters only limit resources newly found during reintrospection.
Resources can be added through recursion using the TDV API.
