Type Parameters

V

Implementation for a multidimensional cube that can be configured with the type of cell to store. This cube implementation grows in each dimension as new dimension members are made known to the cube. If cells are added for dimension members that have not been encountered before, then the new dimension members are added to the known dimension members and the cube is redimensioned, ie. grows. In design of this class, performance is important in the following areas: - Access to cells should be very fast in the normal case. Normal case is that the cell for all dimension members (the particular coordinate) already exists. This class uses a map of dimension member set (coordinates) to fact array ordinal which gets great performance.

The following tables list the members exposed by the MultidimCubeImpl<(Of V>) generic type.

Public Methods

  NameDescription
Equals
Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
GetCell
Get a cell, returns null if the cell does not yet exist.

GetCellAddMembers
Get a cell adding the coordinate members if the cell does not yet exist.

GetHashCode
Serves as a hash function for a particular type. GetHashCode() is suitable for use in hashing algorithms and data structures like a hash table.
(Inherited from Object.)
GetMembers
Get the members making up a dimension.

GetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
SetMembersOverloaded.
ToString
Returns a String that represents the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)

Protected Methods

  NameDescription
Finalize
Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
MemberwiseClone
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
