returns a number format key for the value at the given index
in the data sequence. If nIndex is -1, a key for the entire
sequence should be returned, e.g. the most commonly used one.
a sequence containing the actual data. This sequence
is a copy of the internal data. Therefore changing
this object does not affect the content of the
XDataSequence object.
creates a label that describes the origin of this data
sequence.
This is useful, if a XLabeledDataSequence has
no label sequence. In this case you can call this method at
the value sequence to obtain a fitting replacement label.
The sequence returned here may be empty if no suitable
label can be generated.
The strings returned should be localized.
Parameter eLabelOrigin
denotes what part of the range should be used for label
generation. If you have, e.g., one cell only, the
parameter COLUMN enables you to get the name of the cell's
column, the parameter ROW will give you its row name.
If you have a non quadratic range you can ask for labels for
the longer side with parameter LONG_SIDE or you can obtain labels
for the shorter side with parameter SHORT_SIDE.
If the range is not structured in a tabular way you may reveive
no label.
Returns
Suitable labels for the given sequence depending on the range
of the sequence and the parameter eLabelOrigin passed.
In a spreadsheet this would typically be a label like "Column x"
for the short side used as DataSeries name and maybe a
sequence "Row 1" "Row 2" "Row 3" for the long side to be used
as categories for example.
Example: Assuming this sequence has a Rangerepresentation spanning
row 5 and 6 in column 8. Following sequences of strings or similar strings
are expected as return values:
generateLabel( SHORT_SIDE ) -> "Column 8"
generateLabel( LONG_SIDE ) -> "Row 5" "Row 6"
generateLabel( COLUMN ) -> "Column 8"
generateLabel( ROW ) -> "Row 5" "Row 6"
Which strings exactly you return depends on the naming scheme of the application
which provides its tabular data.
returns a number format key for the value at the given index
in the data sequence. If nIndex is -1, a key for the entire
sequence should be returned, e.g. the most commonly used one.
If number formats are not supported, or there is no
heuristic to return a key for the entire series, return 0
here.
The number format key must be valid for the
::com::sun::star::util::XNumberFormatsSupplier
given by the XDataProvider, or 0 which is assumed
to be always valid.
