public class BLCategoryInfo
extends java.lang.Object

The BLCategoryInfo class defines the Category object of Logi Report BusinessLogic. The BusinessLogic of Logi Report is also called Business Cube or Report Cube.

Categories are the main tools for organizing data. They are components which correspond to particular collections of data in the data source. They are grouped in folders that are named to reflect information collections. A category can contain any number of subcategories. All contents of a BusnessLogic must be inside a category including categories, datainformations, dimensions and measures.

The BLCategoryInfo class contains the methods for adding DetailInformation, Dimension and Measure objects into the Category. The normal workflow is to get a handle to the query node where you want to create the BusinessLogic meta-data, insert the BusinessLogic, add the category then add the detailinformations, dimensions and measures you want in the category.
