If true is returned, a call to createDataSource with the
same arguments must return a valid XDataSequence object. If
false is returned, createDataSource throws an exception.
If true is returned, a call to
createDataSequenceByRangeRepresentation with the same argument must
return a valid XDataSequence object. If false is returned,
createDataSequenceByRangeRepresentation throws an exception.
Returns a component that is able to change a given range
representation to another one. This usually is a
controller-component that uses the GUI to allow a user to
select a new range.
If true is returned, a call to createDataSource with the
same arguments must return a valid XDataSequence object. If
false is returned, createDataSource throws an exception.
Creates a data source object that matches the given range
representation string.
This can be used for creating the necessary data for a new
chart out of a previously selected range of cells in a
spreadsheet.
Parameter aArguments
Arguments that tell the data provider how to slice the
given range. The properties should be defined in a
separate service.
For spreadsheets and textdocument tables there exists a
service TabularDataProviderArguments
describing valid values for this list.
Returns
a data source containing DataSequences that
span the entire region given in aArguments.
Throws
::com::sun::star::lang::IllegalArgumentException
may be raised by the XDataProvider if it is
unable to interpret the arguments passed in
aArguments appropriately.
Tries to find out with what parameters the passed
DataSource most probably was created.
if xDataSource is a data source that was created with
createDataSource, the arguments returned here
should be the same than the ones passed to the function.
Of course, this cannot be guaranteed. However, if detection
is ambiguous, the returned arguments should be empty.
This method may merge representation strings together if
adjacent ranges appear successively in the range identifiers.
E.g., if the first range refers to "$Sheet1.$A$1:$A$8" and the
second range refers to "$Sheet1.$B$1:$B$8", those should be
merged together to "$Sheet1.$A$1:$B$8".
Parameter xDataSource
A data source containing all data used in a chart.
Returns
Arguments that when being passed to
createDataSource should in an ideal case
return the same data source as xDataSource.
If true is returned, a call to
createDataSequenceByRangeRepresentation with the same argument must
return a valid XDataSequence object. If false is returned,
createDataSequenceByRangeRepresentation throws an exception.
creates a single data sequence for the given data range.
Parameter aRangeRepresentation
is a string that can be interpreted by the component that
implements this interface. The representation string is
of a form that may be used in the user interface.
Throws
com::sun::star::lang::IllegalArgumentException
if the given range does not contain a valid range
representation for a one-dimensional range of data.
Returns a component that is able to change a given range
representation to another one. This usually is a
controller-component that uses the GUI to allow a user to
select a new range.
This method may return nothing, if it does not support
range selection or if there is no current controller available
that offers the functionality.
Returns
The component for selecting a new range. It must support
::XComponent, in order to inform the receiver
about its lifetime.
