probes-api | Software Activity Metering - Probes Open API

probes-api is a Java library. probes-api has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has build file available, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

###api instrumentation there are a number reasons why you would consider calling the probes open api directly from your application code. finally, you can use the open api to create software that is self-aware, able to self-reflect on its own execution behavior at various levels and phases in its processing, even if the actual instrumentation is performed by a bci agent. ###api style the open api has a single class, probes, that contains a number of enclosed interfaces such as context, probe, meter, name, and reading. this is done to allow us to bootstrap the metering runtime off the static initialization of the probes class. it also helps avoid name collisions in manually instrumenting existing code. many code bases would have a name class but how many would have probes.name? without this, the complete package, org.jinspired.probes, would have to be listed alongside the class name in any field or variable declaration. the api style also makes it incredibly simple to switch in an alternative implementation via a service provider interface (spi). it also gives a third party vendor the ultimate flexibility in its implementation, which can be tailored to a specific runtime, environment or platform. ###api introduction before exploring the open api lets look at how instrumentation is typically coded today in measuring the performance of method named a within a class named
