Here's the gist of the problem:
I have a set of rows of data with (say) field1
to field4
in them.
I'm using a GroupingCollection
to group on field1
and field2
.
So, I have something like this:
f1.1
f2.1
f3.1 f4.1
f3.2 f4.2
f2.2
f3.3 f4.3
f3.4 f4.4
f3.5 f4.5
f1.2
f2.1
f3.6 f4.6
f2.2
f3.7 f4.7
f3.8 f4.8
f3.9 f4.9
(or at least, I hope that's clear enough)
I need to calculate some derived values for each leaf row, for example f3
, that is the ratio of f3
to the average of all f3
in that particular part of the tree. So, for f3.7
I need to calculate f3.7 / avg(f3.7..f3.9)
and fill that into the f3_index property on the row, displaying that in lieu of f3 itself.
So, basically, what it looks like I have to do is add source field values in the summarizeFunction
implementation. It seems to me that there must be a better way of doing this. Is there?
