C2.M2 calls C4.M4 When profiling you want to know how much time in total was spent in M2 and you also want to know how much time was spent in M4 (and thus how much was spent solely in M2 without calling M4). Now instead of dealing with methods this could be arbitrary resource usages. ie consider an EJB call or set of EJB calls - how much is spent in cache layer, how much is spent in SQL layer, how much is spent walking through stack and so forth. Hmmm .. thats not making sense.

Right - but can the parent add to that name to give it context. So just say we have two pools with identical properties except for their name (which is managed by container). Is there a way for container to inject name into profile point name. -- Cheers, Pete ---------------------------------------- Why does everyone always overgeneralize? ---------------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
