public class HierarchyLevelAssociation

extends AWObject

implements DerivedMeasureInput

Associates a Level with a Hierarchy. A Hierarchy has an ordered list of HierarchyLevelAssociation objects. The position of a HierarchyLevelAssociation in the list specifies the order of the Level in the Hierarchy.

The first HierarchyLevelAssociation in the list should be for the highest Level, which has the Hierarchy members that have the most aggregate Measure values. The last HierarchyLevelAssociation in the list should be for the lowest Level, with members that have the the least aggregate values.

The HierarchyLevelAssociation class implements the DerivedMeasureInput interface, so you can use the associated Level as an input to the calculations that define a DerivedMeasure.

Constructor Summary

HierarchyLevelAssociation(BaseObject input)
Creates a HierarchyLevelAssociation for the specified Hierarchy.

Method Summary

java.lang.String	Create(AWConnection connection) Creates a HierarchyLevelAssociation and adds it to the end of the list of a HierarchyLevelAssociation objects of the associated Hierarchy in the current analytic workspace of the specified connection.
java.lang.String	CreateAfter(AWConnection connection, BaseObject referencedObj) Creates a HierarchyLevelAssociation and adds it after the referenced object in the list of a HierarchyLevelAssociation objects of the associated Hierarchy in the current analytic workspace of the specified connection.
java.lang.String	CreateBefore(AWConnection connection, BaseObject referencedObj) Creates a HierarchyLevelAssociation and adds it before the referenced object in the list of a HierarchyLevelAssociation objects of the associated Hierarchy in the current analytic workspace of the specified connection.
java.lang.String	CreateFirst(AWConnection connection) Creates a HierarchyLevelAssociation and adds it at the beginning of the list of a HierarchyLevelAssociation objects of the associated Hierarchy in the current analytic workspace of the specified connection.
java.lang.String	Delete(AWConnection connection) Removes the HierarchyLevelAssociation from the list of HierarchyLevelAssociation objects of the Hierarchy in the current analytic workspace of the specified connection.
AttributeProjection	findAttributeProjection(Attribute input) Gets the AttributeProjection that associates the specified dimension Attribute to a Level.
Level	getLevel() Gets the Level associated with the HierarchyLevelAssociation.
void	setLevel(Level input) Specifies the Level for the HierarchyLevelAssociation.
java.lang.String	WriteToXML() Gets an XML representation of the HierarchyLevelAssociation.

Constructor Detail

HierarchyLevelAssociation

public HierarchyLevelAssociation(BaseObject input)

Creates a HierarchyLevelAssociation for the specified Hierarchy. An application should use the createHierarchyLevelAssociation method of the Hierarchy to create a HierarchyLevelAssociation rather than using this constructor.

Parameters:

input - The Hierarchy with which to associate a Level.

Method Detail

WriteToXML

public java.lang.String WriteToXML()

Gets an XML representation of the HierarchyLevelAssociation.

Overrides:

WriteToXML in class AWObject

Returns:

An XML String that represents the HierarchyLevelAssociation.

setLevel

public void setLevel(Level input)

Specifies the Level for the HierarchyLevelAssociation.

Parameters:

input - The Level to associate with the Hierarchy that owns the HierarchyLevelAssociation.

getLevel

public Level getLevel()

Gets the Level associated with the HierarchyLevelAssociation.

Returns:

The Level associated with the HierarchyLevelAssociation.

Delete

public java.lang.String Delete(AWConnection connection)

Removes the HierarchyLevelAssociation from the list of HierarchyLevelAssociation objects of the Hierarchy in the current analytic workspace of the specified connection.

Overrides:

Delete in class BaseObject

Parameters:

connection - The AWConnection that represents the database connection.

Returns:

A String that contains success if the method successfully removes the HierarchyLevelAssociation from the list.

Create

public java.lang.String Create(AWConnection connection)

Creates a HierarchyLevelAssociation and adds it to the end of the list of a HierarchyLevelAssociation objects of the associated Hierarchy in the current analytic workspace of the specified connection.

Overrides:

Create in class BaseObject

Parameters:

connection - The AWConnection that represents the database connection.

Returns:

A String that contains success if the method successfully creates the HierarchyLevelAssociation.

CreateFirst

public java.lang.String CreateFirst(AWConnection connection)

Creates a HierarchyLevelAssociation and adds it at the beginning of the list of a HierarchyLevelAssociation objects of the associated Hierarchy in the current analytic workspace of the specified connection.

Overrides:

CreateFirst in class BaseObject

Parameters:

connection - The AWConnection that represents the database connection.

Returns:

A String that contains success if the method successfully creates the HierarchyLevelAssociation.

CreateAfter

public java.lang.String CreateAfter(AWConnection connection,
                                    BaseObject referencedObj)

Creates a HierarchyLevelAssociation and adds it after the referenced object in the list of a HierarchyLevelAssociation objects of the associated Hierarchy in the current analytic workspace of the specified connection.

Overrides:

CreateAfter in class BaseObject

Parameters:

connection - The AWConnection that represents the database connection.

referencedObj - The HierarchyLevelAssociation in the list after which to add the new HierarchyLevelAssociation.

Returns:

A String that contains success if the method successfully creates the HierarchyLevelAssociation.

CreateBefore

public java.lang.String CreateBefore(AWConnection connection,
                                     BaseObject referencedObj)

Creates a HierarchyLevelAssociation and adds it before the referenced object in the list of a HierarchyLevelAssociation objects of the associated Hierarchy in the current analytic workspace of the specified connection.

Overrides:

CreateBefore in class BaseObject

Parameters:

connection - The AWConnection that represents the database connection.

referencedObj - The HierarchyLevelAssociation in the list before which to add the new HierarchyLevelAssociation.

Returns:

A String that contains success if the method successfully creates the HierarchyLevelAssociation.

findAttributeProjection

public AttributeProjection findAttributeProjection(Attribute input)

Gets the AttributeProjection that associates the specified dimension Attribute to a Level. For example, the TIME_SPAN dimension attribute for the Month level might be MONTH_TIME_SPAN.

Parameters:

input - The Attribute for which you want the AttributeProjection.

Returns:

The AttributeProjection that associates the Attribute to a Level.
