Interface WebReportInstance

  • All Superinterfaces:
    EnumWebPersistableState, Persistable, WebResultSetInstance, WebViewInstance
    public interface WebReportInstance
extends WebViewInstance, WebResultSetInstance

    The WebReportInstance interface represents an instance of a report. A report instance is identified by its message ID and state. This interface can be used to retrieve the results of a report, to access its template (encapsulated by WebViewInstance), filter, or working set, or to obtain several of the other objects which allow report manipulation. The WebReportInstance can be obtained from the WebReportSource interface or from a method which performs any type of report manipulation.

    MicroStrategy Web 7.3.1 or earlier

    • Method Detail

      • getTemplate

        @Deprecated
WebTemplate getTemplate​(boolean populate)
                 throws WebObjectsException
        Deprecated.
        WebViewInstance.getTemplate() should suffice all use cases for getting template. Note that getTemplate() always ensures that a populated template is returned. The template population is currently asynchronous. In future release, the template population would be tied to a report instance property e.g. WebResultSetInstance.setAsync(boolean)
        Returns a WebTemplate object, referring to the template contained on this report. If populate is true, then the template will be populated with the current definition of the template according to the Intelligence Server. If it is false, then an empty template will be returned, and it must be populated from an existing template XML. This functionality is primarily used to avoid returning to the server to reload template XML for every web page.
        Parameters:
        populate - If this is true, then the template will be obtained from the Intelligence Server.
        Returns:
        A WebTemplate object which contains the template information for this report instance.
        Throws:
        WebObjectsException - Indicates an inability to obtain the template definition from the Intelligence Server.

      • getFilter

        WebFilter getFilter()
             throws WebObjectsException
        Returns the current state of the view filter object, according to the Intelligence Server.
        Returns:
        A WebFilter object, which represents the current state of the view filter. This can be used to modify the view filter.
        Throws:
        WebObjectsException - Signals an error occurred while obtaining the view filter XML from the Intelligence Server.

      • getFilter

        @Deprecated
WebFilter getFilter​(boolean populate)
             throws WebObjectsException
        Deprecated.
        getFilter() should suffice all use cases for getting filter. Note that getFilter() always ensures that a populated filter is returned. The filter population is currently asynchronous. In future release, the filter population would be tied to a report instance property e.g. WebResultSetInstance.setAsync(boolean)
        Returns a WebFilter object, which can be used to modify the report's view filter. The populate argument will tell whether or not the returned WebFilter should be populated with XML from the Intelligence server. If populate is false, then an empty WebFilter object should be returned instead.
        Parameters:
        populate - True if the returned filter should be populated, false if it should not be populated before returning.
        Returns:
        A WebFilter object, which can be used to modify the view filter.
        Throws:
        WebObjectsException - Signals an error occurred while obtaining the view filter XML from the Intelligence Server.

        WebObjectsException - indicates an inability to obtain the message information from the Intelligence Server.

      • getResultsAsXML

        java.lang.String getResultsAsXML()
                          throws WebObjectsException
        Attempts to obtain the report results from the Intelligence Server, and return those results in XML format. For a page-by report, only the current page is returned.

      • getPropertySetFilter

        SimpleList getPropertySetFilter​(int reportObjectType)
        This method modifies the set of report property sets returned from the getPropertySets call. This method returns a SimpleList object which can be used to filter the property sets returned from the getPropertySets call. The way the property sets work is that there is one property set for each value in EnumDSSXMLReportObjects. Each report object type has a SimpleList of Strings as it's filter - if this list is empty, then all properties will be retrieved for this property set. However, if there are one or more property set names in the filter, then only those property sets will be retrieved from the backend when calling getPropertySets with the same object type.
        Parameters:
        reportObjectType - The report object to retrieve the property set filter for; this should be a value from EnumDSSXMLReportObjects.
        Returns:
        A SimpleList object, which contains Strings corresponding to the property sets to retrieve.

      • getPropertySets

        Returns the WebPropertyGroup for the given report object type. If the property sets have not yet been retrieved from the Intelligence Server, then this method will trigger a call to the Intelligence Server to retrieve those property sets.

        If the property set filter associated with the given report object type is set, then the property set returned will be constrained to only have those property sets in the filter.

        Parameters:
        reportObjectType - The report object whose properties are to be retrieved, from EnumDSSXMLReportObjects.
        Returns:
        The property sets associated with the report object.

                              java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
        Returns the WebPropertySet for the given report object type. If this property set has not yet been retrieved from the Intelligence Server, then this method will trigger a call to the Intelligence Server to retrieve it.
        Parameters:
        reportObjectType - The report object whose properties are to be retrieved, from EnumDSSXMLReportObjects.
        Returns:
        The property set associated with the report object and the name provided.
