Class ParameterNode

java.lang.Object

org.olap4j.mdx.ParameterNode

All Implemented Interfaces:

ParseTreeNode

public class ParameterNode
extends Object
implements ParseTreeNode

A parameter to an MDX query.

Not all dialects of MDX support parameters. If a dialect supports parameters, the driver for that dialect should extend the parser to introduce a ParameterNode into the parse tree wherever a parameter is encountered.

For example, in Mondrian's dialect of MDX, a call to the Param(name, type, defaultValueExpr) function introduces a parameter, and ParamRef(name) creates a reference to a parameter defined elsewhere in the query.

Constructor Detail

ParameterNode

public ParameterNode(ParseRegion region,
                     String name,
                     Type type,
                     ParseTreeNode defaultValueExpression)

Creates a ParameterNode.

The name must not be null, and the defaultValueExpression must be consistent with the type.

Parameters:

region - Region of source code

name - Name of parameter

type - Type of parameter

defaultValueExpression - Expression which yields the default value of the parameter

Method Detail

getRegion

public ParseRegion getRegion()

Description copied from interface: ParseTreeNode

Returns the region of the source code which this node was created from, if it was created by parsing.

A non-leaf node's region will encompass the regions of all of its children. For example, a the region of a function call node Crossjoin([Gender], {[Store].[USA]}) stretches from the first character of the function name to the closing parenthesis.

Region may be null, if the node was created programmatically, not from a piece of source code.

Specified by:

getRegion in interface ParseTreeNode

Returns:

Region of the source code this node was created from, if it was created by parsing

accept

public <T> T accept(ParseTreeVisitor<T> visitor)

Description copied from interface: ParseTreeNode

Accepts a visitor to this MDX parse tree node.

The implementation should generally dispatches to the ParseTreeVisitor.visit(org.olap4j.mdx.SelectNode) method appropriate to the type of expression.

Specified by:

accept in interface ParseTreeNode

Parameters:

visitor - Visitor

Returns:

T, the specific return type of the visitor

unparse

public void unparse(ParseTreeWriter writer)

Description copied from interface: ParseTreeNode

Converts this node into MDX text.

Specified by:

unparse in interface ParseTreeNode

Parameters:

writer - Parse tree writer

getType

public Type getType()

Description copied from interface: ParseTreeNode

Returns the type of this expression.

Returns null if this node is not an expression, for instance a SELECT node.

Specified by:

getType in interface ParseTreeNode

Returns:

type of this expression

getName

public String getName()

Returns the name of this parameter.

Returns:

name of this parameter

setName

public void setName(String name)

Sets the name of this parameter.

Parameters:

name - Parameter name

setType

public void setType(Type type)

Sets the type of this parameter.

Parameters:

type - Type

getDefaultValueExpression

public ParseTreeNode getDefaultValueExpression()

Returns the expression which yields the default value of this parameter.

Returns:

expression which yields the default value of this parameter

setDefaultValueExpression

public void setDefaultValueExpression(ParseTreeNode defaultValueExpression)

Sets the expression which yields the default value of this parameter.

Parameters:

defaultValueExpression - default value expression

deepCopy

public ParameterNode deepCopy()

Description copied from interface: ParseTreeNode

Creates a deep copy of this ParseTreeNode object.

Note: implementing classes can return the concrete type instead of ParseTreeNode (using Java 1.5 covariant return types)

Specified by:

deepCopy in interface ParseTreeNode

Returns:

The deep copy of this ParseTreeNode
