Class DataProvider

java.lang.Object oracle.olapi.data.source.DataProvider

Direct Known Subclasses:: ExpressDataProvider

public class DataProvider

extends java.lang.Object

Creates user sessions for a connection to Oracle OLAP and creates objects that an application uses in getting metadata objects, in specifying queries, and in retrieving data from a data store. A DataProvider is associated with a TransactionProvider and one or more UserSession objects.

The DataProvider class includes methods that do the following:

Create a UserSession associated with a oracle.jdbc.OracleConnectiown.
Get the MdmMetadataProvider to use to get MdmObject metadata objects.
Executes a process that builds analtyic workspace objects.
Create Source objects that an application uses in producing a Source that defines a query.
Create CursorManager objects that an application uses in creating Cursor objects for retrieving the data specified by a query.
Create CustomModel objects, which are Model objects that an application can explicitly create.
Get the FundamentalDataProvider, which provides objects that represent the OLAP Java API data types that an application can use in defining a query.
Get the TransactionProvider, which provides Transaction objects. Every Source is associated with a specific Transaction.

After creating a new DataProvider, an application must call a createSession method of the DataProvider and then call the setDefaultUserSession method. After specifying an initial UserSession, the application should call the getMdmMetadataProvider method of the DataProvider to get the MdmMetadataProvider to use.

A DataProvider can create from one to many UserSession objects, each of which has a different connection to the Oracle Database instance. Each UserSession has access to a shared set of metadata objects. An application can create local metadata objects for an individual UserSession. The management of the UserSession objects is the responsibility of the application.

For the createList methods, the values of the elements array must be unique. The array cannot contain duplicate values.

A DataProvider has settings that determine certain characteristics of the DataProvider, By default, a DataProvider has the following settings:

It uses unique dimension hierarchy member values.
It recognizes only Oracle OLAP 11g metadata model objects.

The DataProvider class has constructors that take a Locale object, or a Locale and either a Properties object or an XML String that specifies settings for the DataProvider. For a table of the property keys or setting names and the case-sensitive values for the settings, and for brief descriptions of them, see DataProvider Settings.

createListSource

public final BooleanSource createListSource(boolean[] elements)

Creates a BooleanSource with elements that have the specified boolean values.

Returns:: A BooleanSource with elements that have the specified boolean values.

createListSource

public final Source createListSource(java.lang.Object[][] tuples)

Creates a Source that has as element values the arrays in the tuples array. Each array in the tuples array specifies a member for one or more MdmSubDimension objects or elements of MdmAttribute objects. MdmSubDimension member values are always String objects. An MdmAttribute can be of any data type; to specify a value of an element of an MdmAttribute, you must encapsulate the value in an appropriate java.lang class. For example, if you want to specify a value for the level depth attribute, then you must wrap the integer in the java.lang.Number class. Valid object types are Boolean, Date, Number, and String. You cannot use a Source object as a value of a component array.

You typically use the Source returned by this method as the comparison parameter in a join method, or as the parameter for the selectValues method, of a Source that has the one of the dimensions as the type and the other dimensions as the types of the outputs. If you use the Source returned by this method in either those ways, then the order of the elements of the each array in the tuples array must match the order of the elements of the Source for which the arrays are providing the values.

The data types of the corresponding elements of each component array must match. For example, if the data types of the elements of the first array are String, Number, and Date, in that order, then the data types of the elements of the other arrays must also be String, Number, and Date in the same order.

The following example creates custSel, which specifies one member of a hierarchy of a Customer dimension, and edge, which represents hierarchies of other dimensions for an edge of a cube. Next it creates edgeSel, which specifies members for the hierarchies of edge. All of the values are String objects. The example then joins the dimension selections to a measure.

In the code, shipHier, prodHier, calHier, and chanHier are StringSource objects for the SHIPMENTS, PRODUCT, CALENDAR, and CHANNEL hierarchies, respectively. The dp object is the DataProvider, and units is the Source for a measure of unit quantities sold.

 Source custSel = shipHier.selectValue(
                                  "SHIPMENTS::SHIP_TO::WARREN SYS NY");

 Source edge = prodHier.join(calHier).join(chanHier);

 Source edgeSel = edge.selectValues(dp.createListSource(
                                    new Object [][] {
                                    {"PRODUCT_PRIMARY::ITEM::ENVY STD",
                                     "CALENDAR_YEAR::MONTH::1998.03",
                                     "CHANNEL_PRIMARY::CHANNEL::CAT"},
                                    {"PRODUCT_PRIMARY::ITEM::ENVY STD",
                                     "CALENDAR_YEAR::MONTH::1998.04",
                                     "CHANNEL_PRIMARY::CHANNEL::CAT"},
                                    {"PRODUCT_PRIMARY::ITEM::ENVY EXE",
                                     "CALENDAR_YEAR::MONTH::1998.05",
                                     "CHANNEL_PRIMARY::CHANNEL::CAT"}}));
 
 Source results = units.join(custSel)
                       .join(edgeSel);

Creates an array of CursorManager objects that can override the local or unique hierarchy value type setting of the DataProvider. The array contains one CursorManager for each Source in the rootSources array. You use the CursorManager objects to create Cursor objects that retrieve the results of the queries.

The fetchSizes and cursorInfoSpecs arrays supply a fetch size and a CursorInfoSpecification for the CursorManager for the corresponding Source in the rootSources array. A fetch size of -1 fetches the entire result set.

With the Properties object for the queryProperties parameter, you can specify the use of local or unique dimension hierarchy member values for retrieving data for a query. The property setting must match the query. For example, if you use local values to specify a query, then the hierarchy value type must be set to local for a Cursor to retrieve data. To use local values, set the property as in the following:

 queryProperties.setProperty("HierarchyValueType", "local");

To use unique values, set the property as in the following:

 queryProperties.setProperty("HierarchyValueType", "unique");

For more information on unique and local values, see the Overview of this documentation.

Parameters:: rootSources - An array of Source objects for the CursorManager objects.; fetchSizes - An array of integers that specify the fetch sizes for the Cursor objects created by the corresponding CursorManager objects.; cursorInfoSpecs - An array of CursorInfoSpecification objects for the corresponding CursorManager objects.; queryProperties - A java.util.Properties object that specifies the use of local or unique dimension hierarchy member values.

Creates an array of CursorManager objects that can override the local or unique hierarchy value type of the DataProvider. The array contains one CursorManager for each Source in the rootSources array. You use the CursorManager objects to create Cursor objects that retrieve the results of the queries.

With an XML String as the querySettings parameter you can specify the use of local or unique dimension hierarchy member values for retrieving data fora query. The setting must match the query. For example, if you use local values to specify a query, then the hierarchy value type for the CursorManager must be set to local for a Cursor to retrieve data.

The following code specifies the use of local hierarchy values.

 String querySettings = "<olapsettings> <setting name = 'HierarchyValueType'" + 
                        " value = 'local' /> </olapsettings>"
