Exception Summary

SyntaxException

Indicates that part of the specification of an SyntaxObject is invalid.

Package oracle.olapi.syntax Description

Contains classes that represent data types, functions, commands, and data objects. Data objects include classes that represent arguments, conditions, and other expressions.

Subclasses of SyntaxObject have methods that convert the object to or from text in Oracle OLAP expression syntax. The text can be SQL statements, or PL/SQL or OLAP DML functions or commands.

An application uses instances of objects from this package in mapping metadata objects to data in the database. Some objects, such as subclasses of Query and Expression, have a getSource method that returns an oracle.olapi.data.source.Source for which an oracle.olapi.data.cursor.Cursor can retrieve data.

BuildCommand objects specify actions that affect an analytic workspace. An application associates a BuildCommand object with a BuildItem and a BuildProcess.
