public class Level

extends MemberSelection

implements DerivedMeasureInput

A MemberSelection whose members share the same level within a hierarchy of a dimension. For example, the Month level within a Time dimension could consist of members January, February, and so on.

A Level implements the DerivedMeasureInput interface, and therefore can be used as input to the calculations that define a derived measure.

Constructor Detail

Level

public Level(BaseObject input)

Creates a Level for the specified Dimension.

Note: The object factories are a recommended way of creating objects. For example, use the createLevel method on a Dimension object.

Parameters:

input - The Dimension that owns the Level.

Method Detail

WriteToXML

public java.lang.String WriteToXML()

Returns the Level as an XML string.

Overrides:

WriteToXML in class MemberSelection

Returns:

A String containing the XML that represents the Level.

Create

public java.lang.String Create(AWConnection connection)

Creates the Level within the current analytic workspace of the specified database connection.

Overrides:

Create in class BaseObject

Parameters:

connection - The AWConnection that specifies the database connection.

Returns:

"success" if successful.

Alter

public java.lang.String Alter(AWConnection connection)

Alter the Level within the current analytic workspace of the specified connection.

Overrides:

Alter in class BaseObject

Parameters:

connection - An AWConnection that defines the connection.

Returns:

String

Delete

public java.lang.String Delete(AWConnection connection)

Deletes the Level in the current analytic workspace of the specified database connection.

Overrides:

Delete in class BaseObject

Parameters:

connection - The AWConnection that specifies the database connection.

Returns:

"success" if successful.

findAttributeProjection

public AttributeProjection findAttributeProjection(Attribute input)

Returns the level attribute (AttributeProjection) that corresponds to the specified dimension attribute (Attribute). For example, the TIME_SPAN dimension attribute for the Month level might be MONTH_TIME_SPAN.

Parameters:

input - The Attribute that defines the dimension attribute

Returns:

The AttributeProjection that defines the dimension attribute for this level
