Option to disable automatic query execution #92

Open klaudiusz223 opened 11 years ago

As a user, I would like to have the possibility of disabling automatic query execution. Optionally as an administrator I need an option in the configuration file for disabling automatic query execution globally for all users (But they should have option to enable it)

It's a nice feature to have, and it could possibly be an workaround for #93 also.

I believe we can combine Olap4J like selection model with existing Pivot4J's MDX based query model which was inherited from JPivot.

To be specific, we can use selection based model when the grid is not properly in invalid state (i.e. missing an axis) or when the automatic query execution is disabled, and in all other cases use current MDX based model.

It's a big architectural change, so will take at least 3-4 of weeks to do it properly (as I mostly work only on weekends).

I'm still not decided about whether we should do it before or after other 0.8 features.
