Constructor Details

CustomValue

public CustomValue(String name)

Creates a new CustomValue object and gives it the specified name. Furthermore, the start time attribute is set to the current time.

Parameters:

name - the statistics name

CustomValue

public CustomValue()

Creates a new CustomValue object.

Method Details

setValue

public void setValue(double value)

Sets the value.

Parameters:

value - the value

getValue

public double getValue()

Returns the value.

Returns:

the value

toList

public List<String> toList()

Called by XLT during a load test to return the full state of the object as a list of strings. The first three entries have to be, in this order, the type code, the name, and the timestamp. All remaining entries and their order are specific to the concrete implementation class.

Override this method in sub classes by calling the super method and adding custom values to the list it returns.

Specified by:

toList in interface Data

Overrides:

toList in class AbstractData

Returns:

the list of values that form the state of this object

• Data.setBaseValues(List)
• Data.setRemainingValues(List)

setRemainingValues

public void setRemainingValues(List<XltCharBuffer> values)

Called by XLT during report creation to recreate the remaining object state from the passed string list. The base values have already been initialized by calling Data.setBaseValues(List) with the same list of values. Splitting the process of recreating the full object state into two methods is purely for performance reasons as the second step is not always needed.

Parameters:

values - the string list to recreate the object state from
