public class MdmLevel

extends MdmSubDimension

An MdmSubDimension whose elements comprise one level of an MdmLevelHierarchy. If the MdmLevelHierarchy has more than one component MdmLevel, then the MdmLevelHierarchy has a hierarchical structure that is specified by parent-child relationships between the elements of the MdmLevel components. Those parent-child relationships are recorded by MdmAttribute objects that you can get with the getParentAttribute and getAncestorsAttribute methods of the MdmLevelHierarchy.

The getType method returns the type of data that the MdmLevel represents. Because an MdmLevel is a component of an MdmLevelHierarchy, the type of an MdmLevel is its MdmLevelHierarchy.

acceptVisitor

public java.lang.Object acceptVisitor(MdmObjectVisitor visitor,
                                      java.lang.Object context)

Calls the visitMdmLevel method of the specified MdmObjectVisitor and passes that method this MdmLevel and the specified context object.

Parameters:

visitor - An MdmObjectVisitor.

context - An Object.

Returns:

The Object returned by the visitMdmLevel method.

Overrides:

acceptVisitor in class MdmObject

getLevelHierarchy

public MdmLevelHierarchy getLevelHierarchy()

Gets the MdmLevelHierarchy of which this MdmLevel is a component.

Returns:

The MdmLevelHierarchy of which this MdmLevel is a component.

getLevelMap

public MtmLevelMap getLevelMap()
                        throws MetadataNotFoundException

Gets the MtmLevelMap for this MdmLevel. The MtmLevelMap maps the elements of this MdmLevel to data in the relational database.

Returns:

getLevelType

public java.lang.String getLevelType()
                              throws MetadataNotFoundException

Returns the type of information that this MdmLevel represents. For an MdmTimeDimension, the possible levelType values are YEAR, HALFYEAR, QUARTER, MONTH, WEEK, DAY, HOUR, MINUTE, and SECOND. For an MdmStandardDimension or MdmMeasureDimension, the level type is STANDARD.

Returns:

A String indicating the type of information in this level.

setLevelType

public void setLevelType(java.lang.String levelType)
