The HFMwMetadata type library consists of components that provide access to metadata information such as the names and aliases of the dimensions, the dimension’s members and member lists, a member’s name and member ID, and so on. These components are introduced in HFMwMetadata Type Library.
The following examples introduce you to the HFMwMetadata type library’s components:
