Interface InstrumentationFacility

public interface InstrumentationFacility
The InstrumentationFacility interface defines a standard way for UIMA components to be instrumented for performance evaluation. The UIMA framework will provide each UIMA component with access to an implementation of this interface. This interface is under development. In its current form, it basically just provides a write-only interface to a ProcessTrace object.

  • Method Details

    • startEvent

      void startEvent(String aComponentName, String aEventType, String aDescription)
      Records the start of an event. The event will be ended when there is a corresponding call to endEvent(String,String,String) with the same component name and event type. The duration of the event will be automatically computed from the difference in time between the start and end.
      Parameters:
      aComponentName - name of the component generating the event
      aEventType - type of the event. Standard types are defined as constants on the ProcessTraceEvent interface, but any string may be used.
      aDescription - description of the event

    • endEvent

      void endEvent(String aComponentName, String aEventType, String aResultMessage)
      Records the end of an event. The event is identified by the component name and type. If there is no open event that matches those values, a UIMA_IllegalStateException will be thrown.
      Parameters:
      aComponentName - name of the component generating the event
      aEventType - type of the event. Standard types are defined as constants on the ProcessTraceEvent interface, but any string may be used.
      aResultMessage - describes the result of the event
      Throws:
      UIMA_IllegalStateException - if there is no open event matching the aComponentName and aEventType arguments.

    • addEvent

      void addEvent(String aResourceName, String aType, String aDescription, int aDuration, String aResultMsg)
      Records a completed event with the specified parameters.
      Parameters:
      aResourceName - name of the component generating the event
      aType - type of the event. Standard types are defined as constants on the ProcessTraceEvent interface, but any string may be used.
      aDescription - description of the event
      aDuration - duration of the event in milliseconds
      aResultMsg - result message of event
