service DataPilotSourceDimension
Description represents a dimension in a data pilot source. A dimension is equivalent to a column of a cell range in a spreadsheet used for a data pilot field. In more complex data sources, a dimension may contain several hierarchies, which consolidate items of a complex data type, called levels. Example: In a database, a column contains date values. This column will be a dimension of the data pilot source. One hierarchy may contain the 3 levels year, month, day. Another hierarchy may contain the 2 levels year and week number.

Exported Interfaces
::com::sun::star::container::XNamed | Description provides access to the name of the dimension, i.e. used in collections.
XHierarchiesSupplier | Description provides access to the collection of hierarchies of this dimension.
