public interface Metric

Each metric is uniquely identified using a name. See getName(). A metric gets its content from Probes. An input can be one of the following:

1. a method with the Probe annotation
2. a field with the Probe annotation
3. a LongProbe function
4. a DoubleProbe function

If the Metric is obtained before it is registered, the Metric is without input. As soon as the registration happens, the input is set on the metric and the current information will be retrieved.
