Constructor Detail

ValueCalc

public ValueCalc(Exp exp)

Creates a ValueCalc.

Parameters:

exp - Source expression

Method Detail

evaluate

public Object evaluate(Evaluator evaluator)

Description copied from interface: Calc

Evaluates this expression.

Parameters:

evaluator - Provides dimensional context in which to evaluate this expression

Returns:

Result of expression evaluation

dependsOn

public boolean dependsOn(Hierarchy hierarchy)

Description copied from interface: Calc

Returns whether this expression depends upon a given hierarchy.

If it does not depend on the hierarchy, then re-evaluating the expression with a different member of this context must produce the same answer.

Some examples:

• The expression

  [Measures].[Unit Sales]

  depends on all dimensions except [Measures].
• The boolean expression

  ([Measures].[Unit Sales], [Time].[1997]) > 1000

  depends on all hierarchies except [Measures] and [Time].
• The list expression

  Filter([Store].[USA].Children, [Measures].[Unit Sales] < 50)

  depends upon all hierarchies except [Store] and [Measures]. How so? Normally the scalar expression would depend upon all hierarchies except [Measures], but the Filter function sets the [Store] context before evaluating the scalar expression, so it is not inherited from the surrounding context.

Specified by:

dependsOn in interface Calc

Overrides:

dependsOn in class AbstractCalc

Parameters:

hierarchy - Hierarchy

Returns:

Whether this expression's result depends upon the current member of the hierarchy
