The foundset typed property in the browser will work based on a 'viewport' of the server's foundset. The viewport is controlled directly by the component's code. Server will adjust foundset viewport bounds/contents only when needed due to data changes, removesdeletes, inserts...

The foundset property also gives the possibility of knowing/changing the selection of the foundset.

For advanced uses, the foundset property can be linked to/interact with other property types (dataprovider, tagstring, component, ...), so that those other properties will provide a viewport as well - representing the same rows/records as in the foundset's viewport. The properties that support foundset view of data will allow the web component to specify a "forFoundset: "[foundsetPropertyName]" in their own property's description in the .spec file.

For foundset property types Servoy Developer allows (in properties view) one of the following:

• a (parent) form's foundset
• a related foundset
• a separate foundset (of any table; smilar to JSDatabaseManager.getFoundset()). When this option is chosen the user can also choose whether or not the separate foundset should load all records initially. (if not checked, contents can be loaded at any time from scripting)
