Constructor Detail

UnivariateStatisticsView

public UnivariateStatisticsView()
Default constructor - required by all views to adhere to the Java bean specification.


UnivariateStatisticsView

public UnivariateStatisticsView(java.lang.String fieldName)
Constructor requires the name of the field to use in the parent view to compute the statistics.

Parameters:
fieldName - is the name of the field within the parent view to use to get numeric data points for this view to compute the statistics on.
Method Detail

setParent

public void setParent(Viewable parent)
Description copied from interface: View
Called when the View is added to a Viewable object.

Specified by:
setParent in interface View
Overrides:
setParent in class ViewSupport
Parameters:
parent - is the parent that this view is a child of

getFieldName

public final java.lang.String getFieldName()
Returns field name of the field to report statistics on.

Returns:
field name

setFieldName

public final void setFieldName(java.lang.String fieldName)
Set the field name of the field to report statistics on.

Parameters:
fieldName - is the field to report statistics on

attachesTo

public final java.lang.String attachesTo(Viewable parentView)
Description copied from interface: View
Return null if the view will accept being attached to a particular object.

Parameters:
parentView - is the potential parent for this view
Returns:
null if this view can successfully attach to the parent, an error message if it cannot.

update

public final void update(EventBean[] newData,
                         EventBean[] oldData)
Description copied from interface: View
Notify that data has been added or removed from the Viewable parent. The last object in the newData array of objects would be the newest object added to the parent view. The first object of the oldData array of objects would be the oldest object removed from the parent view. If the call to update contains new (inserted) data, then the first argument will be a non-empty list and the second will be empty. Similarly, if the call is a notification of deleted data, then the first argument will be empty and the second will be non-empty. Either the newData or oldData will be non-null. This method won't be called with both arguments being null, but either one could be null. The same is true for zero-length arrays. Either newData or oldData will be non-empty. If both are non-empty, then the update is a modification notification. When update() is called on a view by the parent object, the data in newData will be in the collection of the parent, and its data structures will be arranged to reflect that. The data in oldData will not be in the parent's data structures, and any access to the parent will indicate that that data is no longer there.

Parameters:
newData - is the new data that has been added to the parent view
oldData - is the old data that has been removed from the parent view

getEventType

public final EventType getEventType()
Description copied from interface: EventCollection
Provides metadata information about the type of object the event collection contains.

Returns:
metadata for the objects in the collection

iterator

public final java.util.Iterator<EventBean> iterator()
Description copied from interface: EventCollection
Allows iteration through all elements in this event collection. The iterator will return the elements in the collection in their natural order, or, if there is no natural ordering, in some unpredictable order.

Returns:
an iterator which will go through all current elements in the collection.

toString

public final java.lang.String toString()
Overrides:
toString in class java.lang.Object
