Class MultiValueMetricFunction<N>

java.lang.Object
  com.tibco.rta.runtime.metric.AbstractMetricFunction<N>
      com.tibco.rta.runtime.metric.MultiValueMetricFunction<N>

All Implemented Interfaces:

MetricFunction<N>

public abstract class MultiValueMetricFunction<N>
extends AbstractMetricFunction<N>

Providers of metric computations should implement this interface. The metric computation engine will call into this interface's compute method in order to acquire its metric value.

compute

public abstract java.util.Collection<N> compute(MetricNode metricNode,
                                                MultiValueMetric<N> metric,

Implementation classes will provide the algorithm to compute the metric values via this method It will be given a MetricNode to for which the metric value needs to be computed

Parameters:

metricNode - The metric node for which the metric value needs to be computed

Returns:

true if the metric computation should propagate or rollup to its parent, false otherwise

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if any problem was encountered during metric computation depending on the implementation
