摘要： The present invention is a method and apparatus for declarative report definition and generation using an enhanced, graphical data model and a graphical user interface (GUI) for graphically specifying data items and data computations to be performed on the data is described. It provides a set of data model objects, a data model painter for creating, defining, and visualizing the data model objects, and a data engine that retrieves the data according to the definition of the data objects. That is, the present invention provides a graphical data model allowing a user to graphically specify both the data and computations to be performed on the data and uses the layout metaphor (i.e., "painter") to specify the data. Data model objects include: queries, groups, columns, parameters, cross products, and links. Unlike the prior art, allows the use of multiple queries each containing one or more break groups and cross product groups where groups belonging to two different queries are connected by link objects. The resulting structure is therefore a forest of groups where each group contains one or more columns, thereby enlarging the scope of report definition tools available to users.
摘要翻译： 本发明是一种用于使用增强的图形数据模型和图形用户界面（GUI）的声明性报告定义和生成的方法和装置，用于图形地指定要对数据执行的数据项和数据计算。 它提供了一组数据模型对象，用于创建，定义和可视化数据模型对象的数据模型画家，以及根据数据对象的定义检索数据的数据引擎。 也就是说，本发明提供一种图形数据模型，允许用户以图形方式指定要对数据执行的数据和计算，并使用布局比喻（即“画家”）来指定数据。 数据模型对象包括：查询，组，列，参数，交叉产品和链接。 与现有技术不同，允许使用多个查询，每个查询包含一个或多个中断组和跨产品组，其中属于两个不同查询的组通过链接对象连接。 因此，所得到的结构是每个组包含一个或多个列的组的林，从而扩大了用户可用的报告定义工具的范围。
