0.27

getOldSize

public long getOldSize()

Returns an old size of the value prior to the allocation, in bytes. Returns 0 when a new value is to be allocated, or the size of the value prior to the re-allocation. When the old size is unknown, AllocationReporter.SIZE_UNKNOWN is returned.

Since:

0.27

getNewSize

public long getNewSize()

Returns a size of the allocated value in bytes. When called from AllocationListener.onEnter(com.oracle.truffle.api.instrumentation.AllocationEvent) an estimated size of the allocated value is provided. When called from AllocationListener.onReturnValue(com.oracle.truffle.api.instrumentation.AllocationEvent) a corrected size can be provided, which might differ from the one reported in onEnter. When the allocated size is unknown, AllocationReporter.SIZE_UNKNOWN is returned. The change in memory consumption caused by the allocation is getNewSize() - getOldSize() when both old size and new size are known. The change can be either positive or negative.

0.27

getValue

public Object getValue()

Returns the value which is a subject of allocation. When called from AllocationListener.onEnter(com.oracle.truffle.api.instrumentation.AllocationEvent) the returned value is either null when a new one is to be allocated, or non- null when the value is to be re-allocated. When called from AllocationListener.onReturnValue(com.oracle.truffle.api.instrumentation.AllocationEvent) it is always non-null and it is either the newly allocated value, or the same instance of the re-allocated value as was provided in the preceding call to AllocationListener.onEnter(com.oracle.truffle.api.instrumentation.AllocationEvent).
