IMsDimensionFilter.FilterDimension

Syntax

Description

The FilterDimension property returns the dimension, in which multiple selection is enabled.

Comments

To fix this dimension, use the IMsDimensionFilter.Fixed property.

Example

Executing the example requires that the repository contains a modeling container with the MS identifier that contains a determinate equation model with the MODEL_FREEDIM identifier.

Add links to the Dimensions, Metabase, Ms system assemblies.

Sub UserProc;
Var
    mb: IMetabase;
    MsKey, i: Integer;
    Model: IMsModel;
    Transform: IMsFormulaTransform;
    Formula: IMsFormula;
    FreeDimensions: IMsDimensionFilterList;
    Filter: IMsDimensionFilter;
    Dim: IDimensionModel;
Begin
    // Get current repository
    mb := MetabaseClass.Active;
    // Get modelling container key
    MsKey := mb.GetObjectKeyById("MS");
    // Get model
    Model := mb.ItemByIdNamespace("MODEL_FREEDIM", MsKey).Bind As IMsModel;
    // Get model calculation parameters
    Transform := Model.Transform;
    // Get model calculation method
    Formula := Transform.FormulaItem(0);
    // Get list of dimensions, by which multiple selection is enabled
    FreeDimensions := Formula.FreeDimensions;
    // If such dimensions exist, display information about them
    If FreeDimensions.Count > 0 Then
        For i := 0 To FreeDimensions.Count - 1 Do
            Filter := FreeDimensions.Item(i);
            Dim := Filter.FilterDimension;
            Debug.WriteLine("Dimension name: " + (Dim As IMetabaseObject).Name);
            If Filter.Param <> Null
                Then Debug.WriteLine("    - parametric dimension, it is controlled by the parameter: " +
                    Filter.Param.Name);
                Else Debug.WriteLine("    - non-parametric dimension");
            End If;
            If Filter.Fixed
                Then Debug.WriteLine("    - fixed dimension");
                Else Debug.WriteLine("    - non-fixed dimension");
            End If;
        End For;
    End If;
End Sub UserProc;

After executing the example the console window displays information about dimensions of output variable, in which multiple selection is enabled.
