Description

Interface Summary

IObjectOverload	Contains four methods that allow you to identify which universe object should be restricted from the universe.
IObjectsOverload	This interface defines a collection that contains IObjectOverload objects.
IOverload	This interface inherits from IInfoObject and IOverloadBase.
IOverloadBase	This interface provides methods that allow you to manage overload objects within the BusinessObjects Enterprise Infrastructure.
IRowOverload	Contains six methods that allow you to identify which database row should be restricted.
IRowsOverload	This interface defines a collection that contains IRowOverload objects.
ITableMappingOverload	Contains methods that allow you to switch the database tables that are referenced by a universe.
ITableMappingsOverload	This interface defines a collection that contains ITableMappingOverload objects.

CeOverloadRightID

This interface defines constants used to define overload rights.

Package com.businessobjects.sdk.plugin.desktop.overload Description

This package contains a series of classes that allow you to manage overloads and their interaction with IUniverse objects. An overload is a set of restrictions of different types that are associated to a unique universe and a set of principals (a principal is defined as a user or group). For more information on universes and overloads, see the BusinessObjects Enterprise Administrator’s Guide.

Restrictions are individual filters that limit the final view a user has of a universe or a Web Intelligence report. Six different restriction types are available:

Connections

Identifies if the database connection has been overloaded.

Controls

Specifies the information that is used to restrict the database queries. Three specific types are available:


• Limits the size of the result set.
• Limits the execution time of the queries.
• Limits the length of text objects.

SQL

Manages the query and SQL generation options associated with a given universe object. Five specific types are available:


• Allows use of union, intersection, and minus operators.
• Allows multiple SQL statements for each context.
• Allows multiple SQL statements for each measure.
• Allows selection of multiple contexts.
• Specifies cartesian product warning.

Objects

Identifies which universe objects will be restricted from a given universe.

Note: Use the IObjectOverload interface to determine which objects in a universe should not be accessible.

Rows

Identifies which table row is restricted from a given universe.

Note: Use the IRowOverload interface to create a Where clause for a specific table.

Table Mapping

Allows you to replace a table referenced in the universe by another table.

Note: Use the ITableMappingOverload interface to replace an existing table.

Principals can only have one overload applied. However, if an individual user is a member of multiple user groups, due to inheritance the user may be associated with more than one overload object. For that reason, user groups are ordered by priority when associated with a universe. For more information on overloads and user rights, see the BusinessObjects Enterprise Administrator’s Guide
