The abstract superclass for Oracle OLAP metadata objects. A BaseMetadataObject has a unique identifier, returned by the getID method.

The identifier has the form objectName or ownerName.objectName. For example, the unique identifier for the MdmDatabaseSchema for the user SH is SH. For an MdmPrimaryDimension named PRODUCTS_SHJ, the ID is SH.PRODUCTS_SHJ. For an MdmLevelHierarchy named PROD_STANDARD, the ID is SH.PRODUCTS_SHJ.PROD_STANDARD. For some BaseMetadataObject objects, such as an MdmMetadataProvider, the getID method returns an empty string.
