public interface Position
CellSetAxis objects in a CellSet.
An axis has a particular dimensionality, that is, a set of one or more dimensions which will appear on that axis, and every position on that axis will have a member of each of those dimensions. For example, in the MDX query
SELECT {[Measures].[Unit Sales], [Measures].[Store Sales]} ON
COLUMNS,
CrossJoin(
{[Gender].Members},
{[Product].[Food],
[Product].[Drink]}) ON ROWS
FROM [Sales]
the COLUMNS axis has dimensionality
{[Measures]} and the ROWS axis has dimensionality
{[Gender], [Product]}. In the result,
| Gender | Product | Unit Sales | Store Sales |
| All Gender | Food | 191,940 | 409,035.59 |
| All Gender | Drink | 24,597 | 48,836.21 |
| F | Food | 94,814 | 203,094.17 |
| F | Drink | 12,202 | 24,457.37 |
| M | Food | 97,126 | 205,941.42 |
| M | Drink | 12,395 | 24,378.84 |
each of the six positions on the ROWS axis has two members,
consistent with its dimensionality of 2. The COLUMNS axis has
two positions, each with one member.
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
|---|---|
List<Member> |
getMembers()
Returns the list of Member objects at this position.
|
int |
getOrdinal()
Returns the zero-based ordinal of this Position on its
CellSetAxis. |
List<Member> getMembers()
Recall that the CellSetAxisMetaData.getHierarchies()
method describes the hierarchies which occur on an axis. The positions on
that axis must conform. Suppose that the ROWS axis of a given statement
returns {[Gender], [Store]}. Then every Position on
that axis will have two members: the first a member of the [Gender]
dimension, the second a member of the [Store] dimension.
