Constructor Detail

DateMeanOperator

protected DateMeanOperator(OperatorData operatorData,
                           GlobalSettings globalSettings,
                           OperatorColumnSettings opColSettings)

Constructor for class DateMeanOperator.

Parameters:

operatorData - the operator data

globalSettings - the global settings

opColSettings - the operator column specific settings

DateMeanOperator

public DateMeanOperator(GlobalSettings globalSettings,
                        OperatorColumnSettings opColSettings)

Constructor for class DateMeanOperator.

Parameters:

globalSettings - the global settings

opColSettings - the operator column specific settings

Method Detail

createInstance

public AggregationOperator createInstance(GlobalSettings globalSettings,
                                          OperatorColumnSettings opColSettings)

Creates a new instance of this operator. A new instance is created for each column.

Specified by:

createInstance in class AggregationOperator

Parameters:

globalSettings - the global settings

opColSettings - the operator column specific settings

Returns:

a new instance of this operator

computeInternal

protected boolean computeInternal(DataCell cell)

Specified by:

computeInternal in class AggregationOperator

Parameters:

cell - the DataCell to consider during computing the cell can't be null but can be a missing cell DataCell.isMissing() if the option is AggregationOperator.inclMissingCells() option is set to true.

Returns:

true if this column should be skipped in further calculations

getDataType

protected DataType getDataType(DataType origType)

Specified by:

getDataType in class AggregationOperator

Parameters:

origType - the DataType of the original column to aggregate

Returns:

the DataType of the aggregation result

getResultInternal

protected DataCell getResultInternal()

Specified by:

getResultInternal in class AggregationOperator

Returns:

the result DataCell

resetInternal

protected void resetInternal()

Should reset the operator to the start values.

Specified by:

resetInternal in class AggregationOperator

getDescription

public String getDescription()

Returns:

a description that explains the used aggregation method to the user
