Class Sample

java.lang.Object

org.javasimon.Sample

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

CounterSample, StopwatchSample, UnknownSample

public abstract class Sample
extends Object
implements Serializable

Sample contains all relevant values of the Simon that are obtained by the Simon.sample() and Simon.sampleIncrement(Object) methods. Returned object contains consistent set of Simon values as both operations are synchronized. However Sample is a Java Bean and it can be modified afterwards so no consistency is guaranteed when the object is used in an inappropriate context. As a Java Bean object can be used directly as the data transfer object without need to create another DTO with the same data. Sample generally doesn't have any behavior.
