Interface PivotHeaderRow

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractPivotHeaderRow, DefaultPivotHeaderRow

public interface PivotHeaderRow

This is part of the header of the final pivot table that gets its data from an input column. As an example: For an input like

        N.America, Penguins, 100
        N.America, Lions, 200
        N.America, Camels, 10
        N.America, Lions, 200
        S.America, Penguins, 300
        S.America, Camels,5
        S.America, Lions, 150, 
        Europe, Penguins, 0, 
 

If you define the second column as the source for the header row, you can get a pivot table like:

 -----------------------------------------
 Continent | Penguins | Lions  | Camels  |
 -----------------------------------------
 N. America|  100     |  200  |  10      |
 -----------------------------------------
 S. America|  200     |  300  |  5       |
 -----------------------------------------
 Europe ...
 -----------------------------------------
        

where

 ------------------------------
 | Penguins | Lions  | Camels  |
 ------------------------------

is the crosstab header row
