The Locator Report task generates a report based on the relation of stores to competitors.

This task generates a report that will determine the proximity of locations to a given set of center points. For example, you can use this method to illustrate the proximity of competitors to each store location. This report will list and display all the competitor locations that are closest to each store and allows you to examine their geographic patterns and distribution.

The result of this task is a TaskResultOutput object, which is compatible with ArcGIS Server's mapping APIs. FeatureSet, MapImage, and an array of ReportInfo objects can be returned in it depending on task output options requested. The array of ReportInfo items if returned contains the single report. Additionally, the output analysis layer and/or report can be stored to the Business Analyst Server repository.

Constructor Detail
LocatorReportTask()Constructor
public function LocatorReportTask(urlOrClient:Object = null)

Creates a new instance of the LocatorReportTask class.

A new task can be constructed in two ways: as a task sharing a BAServerClient type instance with other tasks (the urlOrClient parameter has the BAServerClient type) or as a standalone task encapsulating its own client.

The base URL to the Business Analyst Server HTTP Service looks as follows:

http://{host}:{port}/ArcGIS/baserver/REST/services/DefaultMap/BAServer

The {host} and {port} parameters in this URL should be substituted with valid Business Analyst Server host name and port, respectively.

Parameters
urlOrClient:Object (default = null) — A variable containing either Business Analyst Server HTTP Service base URL string or an instance of the BAServerClient class.

Method Detail
createCommand()method
public function createCommand(parameters:LocatorReportParameters, commandName:String = null):BACommand

Creates a new command encapsulating this task and the given parameters.

Parameters

parameters:LocatorReportParameters — Parameters of a task to be executed.
 
commandName:String (default = null) — Command name.

Returns
BACommand — A new command.
execute()method 
public function execute(parameters:LocatorReportParameters, responder:IResponder = null):AsyncToken

Sends a request for executing a Locator Report task to the Business Analyst Server HTTP (REST) Service.

A response can be received in two ways—in an optional responder object passed in parameters of this method and/or in listeners of fault and taskCompleted events registered for this task.

The responder is notified first when a response is received and parsed. Its fault method receives a parameter of the FaultEvent type and its result method receives a parameter of the BATaskCompletedEvent type whose result property contains the result object. After that the received event is dispatched to listeners of this task.

If a response is succesfully received and parsed, the result is assigned to the lastResult property of this task.

Parameters

parameters:LocatorReportParameters — Parameters of the task.
 
responder:IResponder (default = null) — A responder to call on result or fault.

Returns
AsyncToken — Asynch token associated with the response.
