Constructor Detail

ExpressionColumn

public ExpressionColumn(int number,
                        java.lang.String fullName,
                        java.lang.String shortName,
                        int visible,
                        java.lang.String expressionText,
                        Expression expression)

Create a new expression column.

Parameters:

number - The column number

fullName - The full name of the column which appears in menus etc.

shortName - The short name of the column which appears in the table header.

visible - Either Column.HIDDEN, Column.VISIBLE or Column.ALWAYS_HIDDEN.

expressionText - Text of expression.

expression - Compiled expression.

Method Detail

getExpressionText

public java.lang.String getExpressionText()

Return the text version of the expression.

Returns:

Text version of the expression.

setExpressionText

public void setExpressionText(java.lang.String expressionText)

Set the text version of the expression.

Parameters:

expressionText - New expression text.

getExpression

public Expression getExpression()

Get the compiled expression.

Returns:

Compiled expression.

setExpression

public void setExpression(Expression expression)

Set the compiled expression.

Parameters:

expression - Compiled expression.

calculate

public void calculate(QuoteBundle quoteBundle,
                      java.util.List quotes)
               throws EvaluationException

Execute the expression and calculate the result for each quote. This function takes a list of quotes, rather than extracting them from the quote bundle, because typically the table (and therefore this column) does not display all the quotes in the quote bundle. The reason is that to display a single day's quotes requires the loading of two day's worth of quotes. Two days are needed to calculate the quote change values.

Parameters:

quoteBundle - Quote Bundle containing quotes

quotes - A list of Quotes which contain the symbols and dates to evaluate. A result will be calculated for each quote in the list.

Throws:

EvaluationException - If there was an error evaluating an expression, such as divide by zero.

getResult

public ExpressionResult getResult(Symbol symbol,
                                  TradingDate date)

Return the result of the expression for the given symbol on the given date.

Parameters:

symbol - Query the result for this symbol.

date - Query the result for this date.

Returns:

The expression result or ExpressionResult.EMPTY if there is currently no result for the given symbol and date.

clone

public java.lang.Object clone()

Clone this expression column.

Overrides:

clone in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

Cloned expression column.
