Method Detail

getStats

ClipboardPage getStats()

Returns the standard statistics for the current Thread, as a clipboard page. None of the optional statistics are returned.

Returns:

the statistics

getStats

ClipboardPage getStats(java.util.Set aOptionalStats)

Returns the standard statistics for the current Thread, as a clipboard page, as well as some of the optional statistics.

Parameters:

aOptionalStats - the names of the optional statistics that are desired. The Code-Pega-PAL property names of these statistics must be supplied as Strings.

Returns:

the statistics

getStats

ClipboardPage getStats(java.lang.String aConnectionID,
                     java.lang.String aThreadName)

Returns the statistics for a different Thread, as a clipboard page

Parameters:

aConnectionID - the connection ID for the Requestor containing the desired Thread

aThreadName - the name of the desired Thread

Returns:

the statistics

clearStats

void clearStats()

Resets all the statistics to zero.

incrementConnectCount

void incrementConnectCount()

Increments the value of the "number of external connections" statistic.

incrementAlertCount

void incrementAlertCount()

Increments the value of the "number of alerts generated" statistic.

startTimingConnect

void startTimingConnect()

Starts recording the time spent in an external connection. This method should be invoked before calling an external service.

stopTimingConnect

void stopTimingConnect()

Stops recording the time spent in an external connection. This method should be invoked after calling an external service.

startJavaStepTimer

void startJavaStepTimer(boolean aNewStep)

Deprecated. As of release 7.1 we do not track java step times

Starts timing for a Java step of an Activity

Parameters:

aNewStep - true if this is a new Java step and the count should be incremented

startOrStopTimer

void startOrStopTimer(java.lang.String timer,
                    boolean on)

Deprecated. This method was only ever used to track stream times, and as of release 7.1 we do not track stream times

Searches for the timer named by string and either starts or stops it depending on the ON value. True starts the timer, false stops it. The timer string must be a substring of the string that identifies the PAL Statistic, non-unique substrings will result in unexpected behavior

Parameters:

timer -

on -

stopJavaStepTimer

void stopJavaStepTimer()

Deprecated. As of release 7.1 we do not track java step times

Stops timing for a Java step of an Activity

getInteraction

int getInteraction()

Return the current interaction number.

Returns:

current interaction

incrementFlowCount

void incrementFlowCount()

increment the value of "flow count" - the count of "BPM" invocations (advancing a work object)
