public abstract class MdmModel

extends MdmObject

implements Model

A Model that assigns a value to an MdmAttribute or an MdmMeasure for a set of MdmDimension members. The values and the MdmDimension members are specified by the Assignment objects of the MdmModel.

As needed, Oracle OLAP implicitly creates an MdmModel for an MdmDimension, MdmAttribute, or MdmMeasure provided by the MdmMetadataProvider.

Constructor Detail

MdmModel

public MdmModel(MdmMetadataProvider metadataProvider)

Creates an MdmModel for MDM metadata objects provided by the specified MdmMetadataProvider.

Parameters:

metadataProvider - The MdmMetadataProvider to use in creating the MdmModel.

Method Detail

getMdmSource

public abstract MdmSource getMdmSource()

Gets the MdmSource for the MdmModel.

Returns:

The MdmSource for the MdmModel.

getType

public abstract Source getType()

Gets the Source that is the type of the MdmModel.

Specified by:

getType in interface Model

Returns:

The Source that is the type of the MdmModel.

getInputs

public abstract java.util.List getInputs()

Specified by:

getInputs in interface Model

Returns:

A List of the Source objects that are the inputs of the MdmModel.

getOutputs

public final java.util.List getOutputs()

Specified by:

getOutputs in interface Model

Returns:

An empty List.

getParentModels

public abstract java.util.List getParentModels()

Gets the MdmModel objects that are the parents of the MdmModel; the MdmModel can inherit the Assignment objects of its parents.

Specified by:

getParentModels in interface Model

Returns:

A List of the MdmModel objects that are the parents of the MdmModel.

getAssignments

public java.util.List getAssignments()

Gets the Assignment objects of the MdmModel.

Specified by:

getAssignments in interface Model

Returns:

A List of the Assignment objects of the MdmModel.

assign

public void assign(Qualification[] qualifications,
                   Source assigned)

Creates an Assignment with the default precedence and adds it to the MdmModel.

Specified by:

assign in interface Model

Parameters:

qualifications - An array of Qualification objects, each of which specifies a dimension member.

assigned - A Source that defines a value to assign as the value of a measure or attribute for the specified dimension members.

assign

public void assign(Qualification[] qualifications,
                   Source assigned,

Specified by:

assign in interface Model

Parameters:

qualifications - An array of Qualification objects, each of which specifies a dimension member.
