public final class DateSource

extends Source

A Source whose elements have Date objects as values. A DateSource has an OLAP API data type of Date. This class implements some Source methods so that they use Date values, such as appendValue, and implements other methods that perform Date operations, such as plusDays.

Returns:

A BooleanSource that has an element that has a value of true when the value of the corresponding element of this DateSource equals the specified Date value, or false when it does not.

See Also:

Source.eq(Source rhs)

ge

public final BooleanSource ge(java.util.Date rhs)

The BooleanSource returned by this method has an element that is true when the value of a given element of this DateSource is greater than or equal to the specified Date value, or a value of false when it is not.

Parameters:

rhs - The Date value that you want to compare to the values of the elements of this DateSource.

Returns:

A BooleanSource that has an element with a value of true when the value of a given element of this DateSource is greater than or equal to the specified Date value, or false when it is not.

See Also:

Source.ge(Source rhs)

getDataType

public Source getDataType()

Gets the fundamental Source that represents the OLAP API data type of this DateSource, which is Date.

Overrides:

getDataType in class Source

Returns:

The fundamental Source that represents the OLAP API Date data type.

gt

public final BooleanSource gt(java.util.Date rhs)

Compares the value of each element of this DateSource to the specified Date value, and determines whether it has a greater value.

Parameters:

rhs - The Date value that you want to compare to the values of the elements of this DateSource.

Returns:

A BooleanSource that has an element with a value of true when the value of the corresponding element of this DateSource is greater than the specified Date value, or false when it is not.

See Also:

Source.gt(Source rhs)

le

public final BooleanSource le(java.util.Date rhs)

Compares the value of each element of this DateSource to the specified Date value, and determines whether it has a lesser or equal value.

Parameters:

rhs - The boolean value that you want to compare to the values of the elements of this DateSource.

Returns:

A BooleanSource that has an element with a value of true when the value of the corresponding element of this DateSource is less than or equal to the specified Date value, or false when it is not.

See Also:

Source.le(Source rhs)

lt

public final BooleanSource lt(java.util.Date rhs)

Compares the value of each element of this DateSource to the specified Date value, and determines whether it has a lesser value.

Parameters:

rhs - The Date value that you want to compare to the values of the elements of this DateSource.

Returns:
