ICubeSegment.Dimensions

Syntax

Description

The Dimensions property returns the collection of cube segment dimensions.

Comments

A segment can have its own list of dimensions, which are a subset of all dimensions of the segment container. A segment is applied to the cubes, which include the same dimensions included in the current Dimensions collection.

Example

Executing the example requires that the repository contains a segment container with the SEG_CONTAINER identifier.

Add links to the Cubes and Metabase system assemblies.

Sub UserProc;
Var
    Mb: IMetabase;
    SegContainer: ICubeSegmentContainer;
    Segments: ICubeSegments;
    Segment: ICubeSegment;
Begin
    Mb := MetabaseClass.Active;
    SegContainer := Mb.ItemById("SEG_CONTAINER").Bind As ICubeSegmentContainer;
    Debug.WriteLine("---Container dimensions---");
    ShowDimsInfo(SegContainer.Dimensions);
    Segments := SegContainer.GetAllSegments;
    Debug.WriteLine("---Segment dimensions---");
    For Each Segment In Segments Do
        Debug.WriteLine("Segment: " + (Segment As IMetabaseObject).Name);
        ShowDimsInfo(Segment.Dimensions);
    End For;
End Sub UserProc;

Sub ShowDimsInfo(Dims: ICubeSegmentDimensions);
Var
    Dim: ICubeSegmentDimension;
    MObj: IMetabaseObject;
Begin
    Debug.Indent;
    For Each Dim In Dims Do
        MObj := Dim.Dimension As IMetabaseObject;
        Debug.WriteLine(MObj.Name + '(' + MObj.Id + ')');
    End For;
    Debug.Unindent;
End Sub ShowDimsInfo;

After executing the example the development environment console displays information about the dimensions added to the segment container and about the dimensions of each segment.
