New topic: Every property of a custom document node must have an associated identifier, a Property Name.

Undoable Nodes

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 04:16:50 GMT

New topic: Document nodes must not be modified. Instead they may contain Undoable Nodes, a special, modifiable kind of nodes.

Undoable Properties

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 04:16:50 GMT

New topic: The Undoable Property is the most basic kind of undoable node. It is a field where the Document Model Framework can record any change of the field.

Undoable Cross Reference Properties

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 04:16:50 GMT

New topic: Undoable Cross Reference Properties are fields that contain references to other document nodes. They enable the Document Model Framework to observe changes to the monitored field.

Undoable Lists

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 04:16:50 GMT

New topic: Undoable Lists correspond to Undoable Properties, but contain a list of values instead of a single value.

Undoable Sets

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 04:16:50 GMT

New topic: Undoable Sets are analogous to Undoable Lists and Undoable Dictionaries, but implement sets.

Data Management

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 04:16:50 GMT

The Data Manager makes up a substantial part of the analysis document. It holds and handles data. It is the top node and entry point to data management.

Indexes and Hierarchies

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 04:16:50 GMT

Indexed representations are used for columns that have a reasonably small number of unique values. Multi-dimensional indexes, called hierarchies, are useful in many analysis scenarios.

Metadata Properties

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 04:16:50 GMT

The data manager's property registry registers the name, type, and an optional default value for standard metadata properties. Metadata properties can be defined at document, table and column level.

Spotfire Text Data Format

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 04:16:50 GMT

The Spotfire Text Data Format (STDF) is a tabular data format, the common file format for Spotfire products. It is strict, unforgiving, easy to parse efficiently, and particularly useful if data is both formatted and parsed by Spotfire products. Otherwise, a more flexible format might be preferable.

Web Architecture

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 04:16:50 GMT

The Web Player JavaScript API integrates solutions with the Spotfire Web Player. It enables event handling, data data marking and filter manipulation.

The Web Document

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 04:16:50 GMT

The web document is a node tree on the server. When rendered, it translates the document model into a rendered web document that can be visualized in a web browser.

The Client Communication Engine

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 04:16:50 GMT

The Client Communication Engine enbables the client side web control to send control signals to its server side. If the signal changes any web control, the server responds with one or more change objects. The Client Communication Engine updates the client UI accordingly.

Mashup Development with Multiple Servers

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 04:16:50 GMT

JavaScript in mashup calls from the same server as the Web Player does not compromise domain security. If the mashup and the Web Player reside on different servers, attention to domain attributes is essential.
