public interface Cube
extends MOFClass

A Cube is a collection of analytic values (i.e., measures) that share the same dimensionality. This dimensionality is specified by a set of unique Dimensions from the Schema. Each unique combination of members in the Cartesian product of the Cube?s Dimensions identifies precisely one data cell within a multidimensional structure. Synonyms: Multidimensional Array, Hypercube, Hypervolume.

Method Detail

isVirtual

public boolean isVirtual()
                  throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException
If true, then this Cube is a Virtual Cube (i.e., it has no physical realization).

setVirtual

public void setVirtual(boolean newValue)
                throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException
If true, then this Cube is a Virtual Cube (i.e., it has no physical realization).

getCubeDimensionAssociation
