It has an additional step that converts the given dimensions to "dimension holders", which represent the + * multi-value holders for a given dimension. + * Therefore, the conversion goes from ColumnValueSelector -> DimensionHolder -> DictionaryID (for each dimension in the holder) + * + * The dimension holder is only applicable for multi-value strings. + * For other dimensions that cannot have multi-values the dimension holder is identical to the dimension. They can be + * defensively cast or homogenised, for example doubles to floats for float selectors or Long[] to Object[] for array + * selectors, so that the upstream callers can assume the class of the dimensions. The size of these dimensions is always 1, + * and only contain a value at index 0. + * + * Converting a value to its dictionary id might require building dictionaries on the fly while computing the id. The + * return type of the methods, except {@link #multiValueSize}, takes that into account. + * + * The implementations can pre-convert the value to the dictionaryId while extracting the dimensionHolder. Extracting + * dictionary id for a specific value from the (potentially multi-value dimension holder) can be done by calling + * {@link #getIndividualValueDictId} and passing the index to the multi-value. + * + * @see IdToDimensionConverter for converting the dictionary values back to dimensions + * + * @param <DimensionHolderType> Type of the dimension holder + */ +public interface DimensionToIdConverter<DimensionHolderType> Review Comment: 👍 Currently, I am going ahead with refactoring the keymapping strategy to a. KeyMappingGroupByColumnSelectorStrategy - For arrays, and complex types b. KeyMappingMultiValueGroupByColumnSelectorStrategy - This would handle only strings -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
