Generates the navigation descriptors of the
ENEQuery for a selected ancestor.

public static DimValIdList SelectAncestor( Navigation n, DimVal ancestor, DimVal descriptor )
Public Shared Function SelectAncestor ( _ n As Navigation, _ ancestor As DimVal, _ descriptor As DimVal _ ) As DimValIdList
public: static DimValIdList^ SelectAncestor ( Navigation^ n, DimVal^ ancestor, DimVal^ descriptor )
Parameters
- n (Navigation)
- The current Navigation object.
- ancestor (DimVal)
- The ancestor (a DimVal object) which will be used to generate new navigation values.
- descriptor (DimVal)
- The descriptor (a DimVal object) which will be replaced with its ancestor.
Return Value
A DimValIdList object containing the IDs of the
new navigation query descriptors after the current navigation
descriptor is replaced with its ancestor.
Remarks
This method replaces the specified navigation descriptor
(the descriptor parameter) with the ancestor
dimension value (the ancestor parameter), and
generates a new set of navigation values for the
ENEQuery. The order of the descriptors
remains the same as the order in the current
Navigation object. However, the specified
ancestor is substituted for the specified descriptor.
