Class EventSettings

java.lang.Object
jdk.jfr.EventSettings
public abstract class EventSettings extends Object
Convenience class for applying event settings to a recording.

An EventSettings object for a recording can be obtained by invoking the Recording.enable(String) method which is configured using method chaining.

The following example shows how to use the EventSettings class. 

Recording r = new Recording();
r.enable("jdk.CPULoad")
 .withPeriod(Duration.ofSeconds(1));
r.enable("jdk.FileWrite")
 .withoutStackTrace()
 .withThreshold(Duration.ofNanos(10));
r.start();
Thread.sleep(10_000);
r.stop();
r.dump(Files.createTempFile("recording", ".jfr"));
