HierarchyCollection Class

Contains a read-only, on-demand collection of Hierarchy objects contained in a Dimension or a Set.

Namespace:  Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdServer
Assembly:  msmgdsrv (in msmgdsrv.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public NotInheritable Class HierarchyCollection _
    Implements IDisposable, IEnumerable, ICollection
'Usage
Dim instance As HierarchyCollection
public sealed class HierarchyCollection : IDisposable, 
    IEnumerable, ICollection
public ref class HierarchyCollection sealed : IDisposable, 
    IEnumerable, ICollection
[<SealedAttribute>]
type HierarchyCollection =  
    class
        interface IDisposable
        interface IEnumerable
        interface ICollection
    end
public final class HierarchyCollection implements IDisposable, IEnumerable, ICollection

Remarks

While the HierarchyCollection externally represents a collection of Hierarchy objects, the collection is internally loaded and managed in one of two ways, depending on the parent of the collection:

  • If the parent object was referenced as a result of a query, as in the case of a Set referenced from a Axis, the collection represents the members referenced by that query.

  • If the parent object was referenced as a result of a request for metadata, as in the case of a Dimension referenced from a CubeDef, the collection represents the members referenced by the definition of the parent object.
