public interface Member
extends OlapElement, Comparable

A Member is a 'point' on a dimension of a cube. Examples are [Time].[1997].[January], [Customer].[All Customers], [Customer].[USA].[CA], [Measures].[Unit Sales].

Every member belongs to a Level of a Hierarchy. Members except the root member have a parent, and members not at the leaf level have one or more children.

Measures are a special kind of member. They belong to their own dimension, [Measures].

There are also special members representing the 'All' value of a hierarchy, the null value, and the error value.

Members can have member properties. Their Level.getProperties() defines which are allowed.

Method Detail

getParentMember

Member getParentMember()

Returns this member's parent, or null (not the 'null member', as returned by Hierarchy.getNullMember()) if it has no parent.

In an access-control context, a member may have no visible parents, so use SchemaReader.getMemberParent(mondrian.olap.Member).

getLevel

Level getLevel()

getHierarchy

Hierarchy getHierarchy()

Specified by:

getHierarchy in interface OlapElement

getParentUniqueName

String getParentUniqueName()

Returns name of parent member, or empty string (not null) if we are the root.

getMemberType

Member.MemberType getMemberType()

Returns the type of member.

setName

void setName(String name)

Only allowable if the member is part of the WITH clause of a query.

isAll

boolean isAll()

Returns whether this is the 'all' member.

isMeasure

boolean isMeasure()

Returns whether this is a member of the measures dimension.

isNull

boolean isNull()

Returns whether this is the 'null member'.

isChildOrEqualTo

boolean isChildOrEqualTo(Member member)

Returns whether member is equal to, a child, or a descendent of this Member.

isCalculated

boolean isCalculated()

Returns whether this member is computed using either a with member clause in an mdx query or a calculated member defined in cube.

getSolveOrder

int getSolveOrder()

getExpression

Exp getExpression()

getAncestorMembers

Member[] getAncestorMembers()

Returns array of all members, which are ancestor to this.

isCalculatedInQuery

boolean isCalculatedInQuery()

Returns whether this member is computed from a with member clause in an mdx query.

getPropertyValue

Object getPropertyValue(String propertyName)

Returns the value of the property named propertyName. Name match is case-sensitive.

getPropertyValue

Object getPropertyValue(String propertyName,
                        boolean matchCase)

Returns the value of the property named propertyName, matching according to the required case-sensitivity.

getPropertyFormattedValue

String getPropertyFormattedValue(String propertyName)

Returns the formatted value of the property named propertyName.

setProperty

void setProperty(String name,
                 Object value)

Sets a property of this member to a given value.

getProperties

Property[] getProperties()

Returns the definitions of the properties this member may have.

getOrdinal

int getOrdinal()

Returns the ordinal of the member.

getOrderKey

Comparable getOrderKey()

Returns the order key of the member (relative to its siblings); null if undefined or unavailable.

isHidden

boolean isHidden()

Returns whether this member is 'hidden', as per the rules which define a ragged hierarchy.

getDepth

int getDepth()

returns the depth of this member, which is not the level's depth in case of parent child dimensions

Returns:

depth

getDataMember

Member getDataMember()

Returns the system-generated data member that is associated with a nonleaf member of a dimension.

Returns this member if this member is a leaf member, or if the nonleaf member does not have an associated data member.
