Method Detail

makeKey

Object makeKey(RolapMember parent,
               Object key)

Creates a key with which to getMember(Object) or putMember(Object, RolapMember) the RolapMember with a given parent and key.

Parameters:

parent - Parent member

key - Key of member within parent

Returns:

key with which to address this member in the cache

getMember

RolapMember getMember(Object key)

Retrieves the RolapMember with a given key.

Parameters:

key - cache key, created by makeKey(mondrian.rolap.RolapMember, java.lang.Object)

Returns:

member with a given cache key

getMember

RolapMember getMember(Object key,
                      boolean mustCheckCacheStatus)

Retrieves the RolapMember with a given key.

Parameters:

key - cache key, created by makeKey(mondrian.rolap.RolapMember, java.lang.Object)

mustCheckCacheStatus - If true, do not check cache status

Returns:

member with a given cache key

putMember

Object putMember(Object key,
                 RolapMember member)

Replaces the RolapMember with a given key and returns the previous member if any.

Parameters:

key - cache key, created by makeKey(mondrian.rolap.RolapMember, java.lang.Object)

member - new member

Returns:

Previous member with that key, or null.

isMutable

boolean isMutable()

Returns whether the cache supports removing selected items. If it does, it is valid to call the removeMember(Object) and removeMemberAndDescendants(Object) methods.

REVIEW: remove isMutable and move removeMember and removeMemberAndDescendants to new interface MutableMemberCache

Returns:

true if the cache supports removing selected items.

removeMember

RolapMember removeMember(Object key)

Removes the RolapMember with a given key from the cache. Returns the previous member with that key, or null. Optional operation: see isMutable().

Parameters:

key - cache key, created by makeKey(mondrian.rolap.RolapMember, java.lang.Object)

Returns:

previous member with that key, or null

removeMemberAndDescendants

RolapMember removeMemberAndDescendants(Object key)

Removes the designated RolapMember and all its descendants. Returns the previous member with that key, or null. Optional operation: see isMutable().

Parameters:

key - cache key, created by makeKey(mondrian.rolap.RolapMember, java.lang.Object)

Returns:

previous member with that key, or null

getChildrenFromCache

List<RolapMember> getChildrenFromCache(RolapMember parent,
                                       MemberChildrenConstraint constraint)

Returns the children of member if they are currently in the cache, otherwise returns null.

The children may be garbage collected as soon as the returned list may be garbage collected.

Parameters:

parent - the parent member

constraint - the condition that was used when the members were fetched. May be null for all members (no constraint)

Returns:

list of children, or null if not in cache

getLevelMembersFromCache

List<RolapMember> getLevelMembersFromCache(RolapLevel level,
                                           TupleConstraint constraint)

Returns the members of level if they are currently in the cache, otherwise returns null.

The members may be garbage collected as soon as the returned list may be garbage collected.

Parameters:

level - the level whose members should be fetched

constraint - the condition that was used when the members were fetched. May be null for all members (no constraint)

Returns:

members of level, or null if not in cache

putChildren

void putChildren(RolapMember member,
                 MemberChildrenConstraint constraint,
                 List<RolapMember> children)

Registers that the children of member are children (a list of RolapMembers).

Parameters:

member - the parent member

constraint - the condition that was used when the members were fetched. May be null for all members (no constraint)

children - list of children
