Class Metric

    • Method Detail

      • metricName

        public final String metricName()

        The name of the metric.

        Returns:
        The name of the metric.
      • hasDimensions

        public final boolean hasDimensions()
        For responses, this returns true if the service returned a value for the Dimensions property. This DOES NOT check that the value is non-empty (for which, you should check the isEmpty() method on the property). This is useful because the SDK will never return a null collection or map, but you may need to differentiate between the service returning nothing (or null) and the service returning an empty collection or map. For requests, this returns true if a value for the property was specified in the request builder, and false if a value was not specified.
      • dimensions

        public final List<MetricDimension> dimensions()

        The dimensions for the metric. For the list of available dimensions, see the Amazon Web Services documentation available from the table in Amazon Web Services services that publish CloudWatch metrics in the Amazon CloudWatch User Guide.

        Conditional: If you published your metric with dimensions, you must specify the same dimensions in your scaling policy.

        Attempts to modify the collection returned by this method will result in an UnsupportedOperationException.

        This method will never return null. If you would like to know whether the service returned this field (so that you can differentiate between null and empty), you can use the hasDimensions() method.

        Returns:
        The dimensions for the metric. For the list of available dimensions, see the Amazon Web Services documentation available from the table in Amazon Web Services services that publish CloudWatch metrics in the Amazon CloudWatch User Guide.

        Conditional: If you published your metric with dimensions, you must specify the same dimensions in your scaling policy.
