Interface IExtractionResults

  • All Known Subinterfaces:
    ICubeExtractionResults

    public interface IExtractionResults
    A handle used to retrieve data stored in a report. Extraction results could contain multiple resultsets, especially when the extraction is at report level, i.e., get all the data stored for a report
    • Method Summary

      All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods 
      Modifier and Type Method Description
      void close()
      Closes all query result set(s) associated with this object; provides a hint to the query that it can safely release all associated resources.
      IResultMetaData getResultMetaData()
      Returns the metadata of the first or current result set
      This method provides the result metadata without having to first fetch the result data.
      IDataIterator nextResultIterator()
      Returns the current result's iterator.

      • getResultMetaData

        IResultMetaData getResultMetaData()
                                   throws org.eclipse.birt.core.exception.BirtException
        Returns the metadata of the first or current result set
        This method provides the result metadata without having to first fetch the result data.

        Returns Null if the metadata is not available before fetching from an IResultIterator, or if it is ambiguous on which result set to reference. In such case, one should obtain the result metadata from a specific IResultIterator.

        Returns:
        The metadata of the first result set's detail row in this IQueryResults. Null if not available or ambiguous on which result set to reference.
        Throws:
        EngineException - if error occurs during extraction
        org.eclipse.birt.core.exception.BirtException
      • nextResultIterator

        IDataIterator nextResultIterator()
                                  throws org.eclipse.birt.core.exception.BirtException
        Returns the current result's iterator. Repeated call of this method without having advanced to the next result would return the same iterator at its current state.
        Returns:
        The current result's iterator.
        Throws:
        EngineException - if error occurs during extraction
        org.eclipse.birt.core.exception.BirtException
      • close

        void close()
        Closes all query result set(s) associated with this object; provides a hint to the query that it can safely release all associated resources. The query results might have iterators open on them. Iterators associated with the query result sets are invalidated and can no longer be used.
