IOLAPCustomAggregator

Package | mx.olap
Interface | public interface IOLAPCustomAggregator
Implementors | AverageAggregator, CountAggregator, MaxAggregator, MinAggregator, SumAggregator

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The IOLAPCustomAggregator interface defines the interface implemented by custom aggregator classes. An instance of a class that implements this interface can be passed to an OLAPMeasure object to define the aggregation type of the measure.

You use the methods of this interface in two groups. The first group consists of the `computeBegin()`, `computeLoop()`, and `computeEnd()` methods. Use these methods to compute an aggregation of the values of a measure.

The second group consists of the `computeObjectBegin()`, `computeObjectLoop()`, and `computeObjectEnd()` methods. Use these methods to compute an aggregation of aggregated values.

Method Detail

computeBegin | () | method

`public function computeBegin(dataField:String):Object`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Flex calls this method to start the computation of an aggregation value.

Parameters

| `dataField:String` — The name of the `OLAPMeasure.dataField` property for the measure to be aggregated.

Returns

| `Object` — An Object initialized for the aggregation. Use this Object to hold any information necessary to perform the aggregation. You pass this Object to subsequent calls to the `computeLoop()` and `computeEnd()` methods.

computeEnd | () | method |

`public function computeEnd(data:Object, dataField:String):Number`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Flex calls this method to end the computation of the aggregation value.

Parameters

| `data:Object` — The Object returned by the call to the `computeLoop()` method. Use this Object to hold information necessary to perform the aggregation.
| `dataField:String` — The name of the `OLAPMeasure.dataField` property for the measure to be aggregated.

Returns

| `Number` — The aggregated value.

computeLoop | () | method |

`public function computeLoop(data:Object, dataField:String, value:Object):void`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Flex calls this method when a new value needs to be added to the aggregation.

Parameters

| `data:Object` — The Object returned by the call to the `computeBegin()` method, or calculated by a previous call to the `computeLoop()` method. Use this Object to hold information necessary to perform the aggregation. This method modifies this Object; it does not return a value.
| `dataField:String` — The name of the `OLAPMeasure.dataField` property for the measure to be aggregated.
| `value:Object` — The object representing the rows data that is being analyzed.

computeObjectBegin | () | method |

`public function computeObjectBegin(value:Object):Object`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Flex calls this method to start aggregation of aggregated values. Calculating the average value of a group of averages is an example of an aggregation of aggregated values.

Parameters

| `value:Object` — The Object returned by the call to the `computeEnd()` method for a previous aggregation. Use this Object to hold the information necessary to perform the aggregation.

Returns

| `Object` — An Object initialized for the aggregation. Use this Object to hold any information necessary to perform the aggregation. You pass this Object to subsequent calls to the `computeObjectLoop()` and `computeObjectEnd()` methods.

computeObjectEnd | () | method |

`public function computeObjectEnd(value:Object, dataField:String):Number`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Flex calls this method to end the computation.

Parameters

| `value:Object` — The Object returned by a call to the `computeObjectLoop()` method that is used to store the aggregation results. This method modifies this Object; it does not return a value.
| `dataField:String` — The name of the `OLAPMeasure.dataField` property for the measure to be aggregated.

Returns

| `Number` — The aggregated value.

computeObjectLoop | () | method |

`public function computeObjectLoop(value:Object, newValue:Object):void`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Flex calls this method when a new aggregated value needs to be added to the aggregation.

Parameters

| `value:Object` — The Object returned by a call the `computeObjectBegin()` method, or calculated by a previous call to the `computeObjectLoop()` method. This method modifies this Object; it does not return a value.
| `newValue:Object` — The Object returned by the call to the `computeEnd()` method for a previous aggregation.
