seems to simple to test, but then again, no code is too simple to break, so
let's test it.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=093031519-05022008><FONT face=Verdana
color=#000080 size=2>To test it, add a method to SchemaTest. The test will
probably need to create its own variant of the foodmart schema; follow the
example of a test in that class that tests a similar thing. Then execute a query
on that virtual cube that returns the measure on the columns axis, navigate to
the member using something like
result.getAxes().get(0).axis.getPositions().get(0).getMembers().get(0) and call
its getCaption method to make sure that the caption is as you
want.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

[Mondrian] Calculation Captions in Virtual Cubes<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>Hi</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The problem is where a calculation in a cube
has a caption define in the schema XML. When using this calculation in a
virtual cube, the specified caption is not returned but the default caption is
returned.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>(see thread <FONT face=Arial color=#000000

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've got a solution that works in our scenario,
but I'm struggling to create a unit test to highlight the problem - I want to
create unit tests so that I am able to submit the change back into the
community. The example tests I've seen all end up getting the measure through
the schema objects rather than getting the caption from the axis result
sets.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Are there any examples you guys can point me to
that get the captions back for the axes that I could use to validate this
fix?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The main contention in the fix would be the
removal of the "final" from MemberBase::getCaption so that it can be
overridden in RolapVirtualCubeMeasure - do you see this being a big
problem?</FONT></DIV>
