MeasurementFieldProperties/Measurement Unit value for a measurement field?

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

I am trying to get the field value of type measurement. I am able to get the value but unable to get the actual unit of measurement. To use the Dimensions object i need to know the Dimensiond Id, which i think can be possible by using the object of MeasurementFieldProperties.

Can anyone of you please let me know if there is way to get this?

Thanks,

Here is the sample code to get the Unit value for measurement field:

MeasurementFieldProperties meaProps =(MeasurementFieldProperties)getRepositorySchema().getField(TABLE_ID, FIELD_ID);

DimensionId dimensionId = meaProps.getDimensionId();

Dimensions dimensions = new Dimensions();

measurementValue = ((MeasurementValue) mdmValue).getMagnitude();

UnitId unitId = ((MeasurementValue) mdmValue).getUnitId();

UnitProperties unitProps = dimensions.getUnit(dimensionId, unitId);

String unitName = unitProps.getName(Locale.US);

Hope that helps!

Awsome!! Thanks Anu!! It worked like charm!!

My only concern is - Dimensions class is deprecated - ofcourse it allows us to go forward but do you know non-deprecated class?

anyhow thanks for your solution!!

Thanks

Yes, Dimensions has been deprecated with new release. Instead of Dimensions you can use the DimensionsManager.

Here is the sample code with DimensionsManager:

DimensionsManager dimensionsManager = getDimensionsManager();

DimensionId dimensionId = meaProps.getDimensionId();

measurementValue = ((MeasurementValue) mdmValue).getMagnitude();

UnitId unitId = ((MeasurementValue) mdmValue).getUnitId();

UnitProperties unitProps = dimensionsManager.getUnit(dimensionId, unitId);

String unitName = unitProps.getSuffix();

String value = measurementValue + unitName;

//Getting Dimensions Manager

public static DimensionsManager getDimensionsManager() {

String sessionTag = null;

GetRepositoryDimensionsCommand cmd =

new GetRepositoryDimensionsCommand(connectionAccessor);

sessionTag = getAuthenticatedUserSession(connectionAccessor);

cmd.setSession(sessionTag);

cmd.execute();

dimensionsManager = cmd.getRepositoryDimensions();

return dimensionsManager;

}
