BusinessObjects Query Builder 相关知识分享

Introduction


Query Builder is one of the essential and interesting tools in BusinessObjects. Using Query builder one can easily query the BusinessObjects repository and get the required information which cannot be found even in CMC.

         To explain more in detail, BusinessObjects repository made up of set of tables to hold the information about the BI content such as Universes, reports, Users, schedules, etc. These tables are encrypted in such a way that the information stored in these tables cannot be readable using conventional SQL query tools. This is the place where Query Builder comes in to picture where in which this is the one and only door step through which we can query the metadata stored in the repository.


Querying repository

      The repository information is stored in the form of InfoObject and the CMS reads the InfoObjects from the virtual tables. Below are the BusinessObjects metadata virtual tables and their associated objects.
