[Mondrian] MDX Expression like <Member> <Op> <String> failed

[Julian Hyde]

OK, you should be able to cast a member to a string. It should evaluate the
member (which will yield a cell value, usually numeric, depending on the
current measure) and convert that to string.

Can you log a jira case with a testcase from foodmart, for example,

with member [Measures].[Foo] as left(cast([Measures].[Unit Sales] as
String), 3)
...

should do something sensible.
