Returns:the name, not null
/** * Returns the name of the setting (for example, {@code "threshold"}). * * @return the name, not {@code null} */

Returns a human-readable name that describes the setting (for example, "Threshold").

If the setting lacks a label, the label for the type that is associated with this setting is returned, or null if doesn't exist

Returns:a human-readable name, or null if doesn't exist
/** * Returns a human-readable name that describes the setting (for example, * {@code "Threshold"}). * <p> * If the setting lacks a label, the label for the type that is associated with this * setting is returned, or {@code null} if doesn't exist * * @return a human-readable name, or {@code null} if doesn't exist */

Returns a sentence that describes the setting (for example "Record event with duration above or equal to threshold").

Returns:the description, or null if doesn't exist

Returns a textual identifier that specifies how a value that is represented by this SettingDescriptor object is interpreted or formatted.

For example, if the setting descriptor represents a percentage, then "jdk.jfr.Percentage" hints to a client that a value of "0.5" is formatted as "50%".

The JDK provides the following predefined content types:

  • jdk.jfr.Percentage
  • jdk.jfr.Timespan
  • jdk.jfr.Timestamp
  • jdk.jfr.Frequency
  • jdk.jfr.Flag
  • jdk.jfr.MemoryAddress
  • jdk.jfr.DataAmount
  • jdk.jfr.NetworkAddress

User-defined content types can be created by using ContentType.

If the setting lacks a content type, the content type for the type that is associated with this setting is returned, or null if not available.
