public class DataItemRankFilter

A step that is used to specify a request for the creation of a flat listing, where data is restricted based on whether it achieved a specific ranking.
Refer to DataItemRankFilter for more specific information. Please note that the relational rank only implements the functionality of TopCount or BottomCount.

Field Summary

static int	BOTTOM Defines a rank order where ranking begins at the bottom of the cube going to the top.
static int	COUNT Defines a "Count" rank type where the numbers directly references the number of items to be returned.
static java.lang.String	EVENT_BY_RANK_ORDER_CHANGED
static java.lang.String	EVENT_BY_RANK_TYPE_CHANGED
static java.lang.String	EVENT_VALUE_CHANGED
static int	PERCENT Defines a "Percent" rank type where the value defines the items that fall within that percentage.
static int	SUM Define a "Sum" rank type where the value defines the number which the items must equal when summed together.At this time, sum for relational is not implemented.
static int	TOP Defines a rank order where ranking begins at the top of the cube going to the bottom.
