Interface Summary
IBIAddition A subtype of of IBIOperation, adds the two operands referenced by addend1 and addend2.
IBIAggregate A subtype of IBINumericValueFunction, aggregates the member set upon which it is operating using the aggregation function defined by the database.
IBIAttributeReference A subtype of IBIInputReference, provides an attribute as an input parameter for various expressions.
IBIAverage A subtype of IBINumericValueFunction, computes the average of the numeric expression for the member set upon which it is operating.
IBIConcatenation A subtype of IBIOperation, concatenates two strings by appending the suffix operand to the prefix operand.
IBICount A subtype of IBINumericValueFunction, counts the number of tuples in the member set upon which it is operating.
IBIDivision A subtype of IBIOperation, divides dividend by divisor.
IBIInputReference An adapter for plugging different types of objects as in-out parameters into various expressions that are used in the OLAP Query Model.
IBILiteralReference A subtype of IBIInputReference, specifies any literal or constant value, respectively, such as a number like "5" or a string like "red," as an input for search conditions or other types of expressions.
IBIMaximum A subtype of IBINumericValueFunction, determines the maximum value of the referenced numeric expression within the member set upon which it is operating.
IBIMedian A subtype of IBINumericValueFunction, determines the median value of the referenced numeric expression within the member set upon which it is operating.
IBIMemberReference A subtype of IBIInputReference, provides a member as an input parameter for various expressions.
IBIMinimum A subtype of IBINumericValueFunction, determines minimum value of the referenced numeric expression within the member set upon which it is operating.
IBIMultiplication A subtype of IBIOperation, multiplies the two operands factor1 and factor2.
IBINumericValueFunction A subtype of IBIInputReference, represents the concept of numeric value functions.
IBIOperation A subtype of IBIInputReference, represents a category of InputReferences that are used to define mostly arithmetic combinations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division) of two other InputReferences, for example, two MemberReferences.
IBIRank A subtype of IBINumericValueFunction, determines the rank of the referenced tuple based on the referenced numeric expression.
IBISignInversion A subtype of IBIOperation, multiplies numericExpression by -1.
IBIStandardDeviation A subtype of IBINumericValueFunction, determines the standard deviation of the referenced numeric expression within the member set upon which it is operating.
IBISubtraction A subtype of IBIOperation, subtracts subtrahend from minuend.
IBISum A subtype of IBINumericValueFunction, determines the sum of the referenced numeric expression within the member set upon which it is operating.
IBITupleReference A subtype of IBIInputReference, provides a tuple as an input parameter for various expressions.
IBIVariance A subtype of IBINumericValueFunction, determines the variance of the referenced numericExpression within the member set upon which it is operating.
 

Package com.sap.ip.bi.sdk.dac.olap.query.input Description

Contains IBIInputReference and its subclasses, types of which can be used as input for other expressions, including IBIInputReferences, IBIMemberSelections, IBISetExpressions, and IBIMemberExpressions, and as formulas for IBICalculatedMembers. This package documentation contains the following sections:

Overview

You specify a CalculatedMember by one input reference, which acts as its formula. There is only one formula per calculated member.

IBIInputReference and its related classes are diagrammed below:

There are three kinds of InputReferences:

Adapter Classes

Adapter classes, such as IBIAttributeReference, are direct subclasses of IBIInputReference and make the classes they adapt usable as input reference.

NumericValueFunctions

The second type, NumericValueFunctions, includes classes such as IBIAverage, which are the direct and non-abstract subclasses of IBINumericValueFunction. They represent numeric functions that can be used calculate an average value, a minimum, or just a sum of values. They all operate on collections of tuples/members.

IBINumericValueFunction and its related classes are diagrammed below:

Operations

The third type, Operations, includes classes such as IBIAddition, which are the direct subclasses of IBIOperation, and represent unary and binary operations. In contrast to IBINumericValueFunction, IBIOperation does not work on a collection of tuples/member, but has one to two input parameters. It takes care of basic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

IBIOperation and its related classes are diagrammed below:
