Field Detail

m_axis

protected AxisInterface m_axis

Constructor Detail

AbstractDimension

public AbstractDimension(AxisInterface axis)

Constructor.

Parameters:

axis - The axis that parents this dimension; may be null.

Method Detail

getAxis

public final AxisInterface getAxis()

Returns the axis that this dimension is a child of.

Specified by:

getAxis in interface DimensionInterface

Returns:

The axis that parents this dimension; will be null if this is a meta-dimension.

getHierarchies

public HierarchyInterface[] getHierarchies(int index,
                                           int count)
                                    throws TableException

Returns the hierarchies associated with a given range of indices. The default implementation simply calls getHierarchy count-times; subclass should override if it can do so more efficiently.

Specified by:

getHierarchies in interface DimensionInterface

Parameters:

index - A zero-based hierarchy index (0 to getHierarchyCount()-1).

count - The number of hierarchies to return.

Returns:

An array whose first element is the hierarchy associated with index, whose second element is the hierarchy associated with index+1, and so on such that array[array.length-1] is the hierarchy associated with index+count-1.

Throws:

TableException - Thrown if the query can not be satisfied (e.g. i/o-failure).

IndexOutOfBoundsException - Thrown if index is negative, or greater than or equal to getHierarchyCount().

getLevels

public LevelInterface[] getLevels(int index,
                                  int count)
                           throws TableException

Returns the levels associated with a given range of indices. The default implementation simply calls getLevel count-times; subclass should override if it can do so more efficiently.

Specified by:

getLevels in interface DimensionInterface

Parameters:

index - A zero-based level index (0 to getLevelCount()-1).

count - The number of levels to return.

Returns:

An array whose first element is the level associated with index, whose second element is the level associated with index+1, and so on such that array[array.length-1] is the level associated with index+count-1.

Throws:

TableException - Thrown if the query can not be satisfied (e.g. i/o-failure).

IndexOutOfBoundsException - Thrown if index is negative, or greater than or equal to getLevelCount().

getNodeChild

public final SimpleNodeInterface getNodeChild(int index)

Alias for getHierarchy. If getHierarchy fails (throws TableException), NoSuchElementException is thrown.

Specified by:

getNodeChild in interface SimpleNodeInterface

Parameters:

index - A zero-based hierarchy index (0 to getHierarchyCount()-1).

Returns:

The hierarchy associated with index.

See Also:

DimensionInterface.getHierarchy(int)

getNodeChildCount

public final int getNodeChildCount()

Alias for getHierarchyCount. If getHierarchyCount fails (throws TableException), zero is returned.

Specified by:

getNodeChildCount in interface SimpleNodeInterface

Returns:

The number of hierarchies.

See Also:

DimensionInterface.getHierarchyCount()

getNodeChildren

public final SimpleNodeInterface[] getNodeChildren(int index,
                                                   int count)

Alias for getHierarchies. If getHierarchies fails (throws TableException), a zero-length array is returned.

Specified by:

getNodeChildren in interface SimpleNodeInterface

Parameters:

index - A zero-based hierarchy index (0 to getHierarchyCount()-1).

count - The number of hierarchies to return.

Returns:

An array whose first element is the hierarchy associated with index, whose second element is the hierarchy associated with index+1, and so on such that array[array.length-1] is the hierarchy associated with index+count-1.

See Also:

DimensionInterface.getHierarchies(int, int)

getNodeType

public String getNodeType()

Returns the dimension's type. The type serves to categorize a node, i.e. identify it as belonging to a particular group.

Specified by:

getNodeType in interface NodeInterface

Returns:

"dimension".

isLeafNode

public final boolean isLeafNode()

Returns false since dimensions parent hierarchies.

Specified by:

isLeafNode in interface SimpleNodeInterface

Returns:

False.
