  • Constructor Details

    • TupleType

      public TupleType(Type[] elementTypes)
      Creates a type representing a tuple whose fields are the given types.
      Parameters:
      elementTypes - Array of field types

  • Method Details

    • toString

      public String toString()
      Overrides:
      toString in class Object

    • usesDimension

      public boolean usesDimension(Dimension dimension, boolean maybe)
      Description copied from interface: Type
      Returns whether this type contains a given dimension.

      For example:

      • DimensionType([Gender]) uses only the [Gender] dimension.
      • TupleType(MemberType([Gender]), MemberType([Store])) uses [Gender] and [Store] dimensions.

      The maybe parameter comes into play when the dimensional information is incomplete. For example, when applied to TupleType(MemberType(null), MemberType([Store])), usesDimension([Gender], false) returns true because it is possible that the expression returns a member of the [Gender] dimension.

      Specified by:
      usesDimension in interface Type
      Parameters:
      dimension - Dimension
      maybe - If true, returns true only if this type definitely uses the dimension
      Returns:
      whether this type definitely (or if maybe is true, possibly) uses the given dimension
