public class Assignment
extends java.lang.Object
An object that belongs to a Model and that represents a calculation, a set of Source elements, and a precedence. When Oracle OLAP applies a Model to an associated Source, the Assignment objects of the Model modify the values of that Source. The calculation of an Assignment is specified by its assigned Source. Its set of Source elements are represented by its Qualification objects, and its precedence is indicated by an integer. A Qualification specifies a Source and an element of that Source. The Source specified by a Qualification is its qualified Source. The precedence of an Assignment indicates the order in which Oracle OLAP evaluates it, relative to other Assignment objects, when Oracle OLAP applies the Model in retrieving or calculating data in a query. Typically, an application does not explicitly create Assignment objects. Oracle OLAP creates an Assignment object when an application creates a custom dimension member, or when the application calls an assign method of a Model.

Method Summary All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods Modifier and Type Method and Description void assign(Model newOwner, Source oldQualifiedSource, Source newQualifiedSource) Moves the ownership of the Assignment from one Model to another. Source getAssignedSource() The Source that represents the calculated value that the Model assigns for a Source that has the qualified Source objects as inputs. Model getOwner() Gets the Model to which the Assignment applies. int getPrecedence() Gets the precedence of the Assignment; a higher value indicates a higher precedence. java.util.List getQualifications() Gets the Qualification objects for the Assignment.

public Assignment(Model owner,
Qualification[] qualifications,
Source assigned,
int precedence)
Creates an Assignment object. Parameters: owner - The Model to which this Assignment applies. qualifications - An array of Qualification objects. assigned - A Source that specifies the value to assign for the qualified Source elements. precedence - The precedence of the Assignment in relation to the other Assignment objects of the Model. Method Detail assign
public void assign(Model newOwner,
Source oldQualifiedSource,
Source newQualifiedSource)
Moves the ownership of the Assignment from one Model to another. Parameters: newOwner - The Model to which you want the Assignment to apply. oldQualifiedSource - The qualified Source to replace in the Qualification objects of the Assignment. newQualifiedSource - The Source that replaces the old qualified Source in the Qualification objects of the Assignment. getOwner
public final Model getOwner()
Gets the Model to which the Assignment applies. Returns: The Model to which the Assignment applies. getQualifications
public final java.util.List getQualifications()
Gets the Qualification objects for the Assignment. Returns: A List of the Qualification objects of the Assignment. getAssignedSource
public final Source getAssignedSource()
The Source that represents the calculated value that the Model assigns for a Source that has the qualified Source objects as inputs. Returns: A Source that represents the value to assign as the value specified by the qualified Source objects. getPrecedence
public final int getPrecedence()
Gets the precedence of the Assignment; a higher value indicates a higher precedence. Oracle OLAP uses the precedence value in determining the order in which it evaluates the Assignment objects of a Model. It evaluates an Assignment with a higher value before one with a lower value. Returns: An integer that specifies the precedence of this Model. Skip navigation links Overview Package Class Tree Deprecated Index Help Copyright © 2002, 2018, Oracle. All rights reserved.
