Interface IHierarchyMember

All Superinterfaces:

IModelObjectBase

All Known Implementing Classes:

OdiHierarchyMember

public interface IHierarchyMember
extends IModelObjectBase

An interface to represent a hierarchy member in a dimension hierarchy. A hierarchy member references a level and a parent reference object that defines the parent level for the hierarchy member.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
IHierarchy	getHierarchy() Get the owning hierarchy for this hierarchy member.
ILevel	getLevel()
IParentRef	getParentRef()
int	getPosition() Get the display position of this hierarchy member.
java.util.List	getSkipLevels() Get the list of skip level objects associated with this hierarchy member.
void	removeSkipLevel(ISkipLevel skipLev) Remove a skip level object from this hierarchy member.
void	setParentRef(IParentRef parentRef) Set the parent ref object for this hierarchy member.

Method Detail

getLevel

ILevel getLevel()

Returns:

The level that is associated with this hierarchy member.

getParentRef

IParentRef getParentRef()

Returns:

The ParentRef object that is associated with this hierarchy member. The ParentRef object relates the associated level to a parent level.

setParentRef

void setParentRef(IParentRef parentRef)

Set the parent ref object for this hierarchy member.

Parameters:

parentRef - The ParentRef object to set.

getHierarchy

IHierarchy getHierarchy()

Get the owning hierarchy for this hierarchy member.

getSkipLevels

java.util.List getSkipLevels()

Get the list of skip level objects associated with this hierarchy member. A skip level object defines an alternate parent level besides the normal parent level defined by the parent ref object. The alternate parent level that can be used by specific level rows that do not have a normal parent row. These would then not be counted as orphan rows.

Returns:

The list of associated skip level objects.

removeSkipLevel

void removeSkipLevel(ISkipLevel skipLev)

Remove a skip level object from this hierarchy member.

Parameters:

skipLev - The skip level object to remove.

getPosition

int getPosition()

Get the display position of this hierarchy member. The ordering defined by the display position is not necessarily the same as the loading order, which is inferred from the set of parent ref objects that are owned by the levels.

Returns:

The display position number.
