MDDB Report Viewer 9.2

MDDB Report Viewer Class, Instance Variables, Flow of Control, and Methods

The MDDB Report Viewer Class

The MDDB Report Viewer class is a viewer that is used to display MDDB data. The class is a component of the MDDB Report Viewer, which is an application used by SAS/EIS software, SAS/IntrNet Application Dispatcher software, and SAS OLAP Server software.

The MDDB Report Viewer class enables you to specify dimensions that can be hierarchies or category variables, in addition to analysis variables. This class enables you to drill down on the hierarchy and other navigation, as well as specify various types of graphic charts. The class writes output from the application to HTML in a Web browser.

PARENT: SASHELP.FSP.OBJECT.CLASS

CLASS: SASHELP.WEBEIS.WEBEIS.CLASS

GRPHTYPE_: specifies the graph type selected by the user. Valid types include: BLOCK = block chart, HBAR = horizontal bar chart, PIE = pie chart, PLOT = plot, and VBAR = vertical bar chart.
GRPHVALS_: specifies a list that contains the data points for the 3-D graph.
HIERL_: specifies the list of metabase hierarchies.

HTMLFILE_: specifies the identifier of the output file for writing HTML.
IMGURL_: contains the URL for the images.
MDDB_: specifies the name of the selected mddb.
METABASE_: specifies the name of the selected metabase.
ROTFLAG_: specifies a flag that indicates whether the user selected the Rotate button, where 1 = Rotate button was selected, and 2 = Rotate button was not selected.
SESSIONID_: specifies the value for the _SESSIONID variable for the application server session.
SHOWTAB_: specifies a flag that indicates whether to display the table, where 1=Yes, 2=No.
STATDESC_: specifies a list of all possible statistics labels.
STATLIST_: specifies a list of the available statistics from the metabase.
STATVARS_: specifies a list of the selected statistics.
SUBHT_: indicates the number of rows to display in the filter list boxes.
SUBLOC_: specifies the location of the filter list boxes, where 1 = right, 2 = left, 3 = top, and 4 = bottom.
SUBSET_BY_: specifies the list of selected filter values.
SUBSET_FLAG_: indicates whether filter values have been selected, where 1 = filters have been selected, and 0 = filters have not been selected.
SUBVARS_: specifies the list of selected filter variables.
SUBWID_: contains the maximum width (in characters) of the filter list boxes.
TBLOC_: specifies the location of the filter toolbar, where 1 = top, 2 = bottom, 3 = left, 4 = right, 5 = do not display a toolbar.
THISSESSION_: specifies the value for the _THISSESSION variable for the application server session.
USEHOLAP_: indicates whether a HOLAP metabase registration is being used, where 1 = HOLAP metabase registration is being used, and 0 = HOLAP metabase registration is not being used.
VMDOFF_: specifies a flag that indicates whether metadata verification checking is to be done on the data model, where any nonblank character = turn off metadata checking, and a blank = perform metadata checking.
