WindowContentFrameStats

public final class WindowContentFrameStats
extends FrameStats implements Parcelable

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.view.FrameStats
     ↳ android.view.WindowContentFrameStats


This class contains window content frame statistics. For example, a window content is rendred in frames when a view is scrolled. The frame statistics are a snapshot for the time interval from getStartTimeNano() to getEndTimeNano().

The key idea is that in order to provide a smooth user experience an application has to draw a frame at a specific time interval obtained by calling getRefreshPeriodNano(). If the application does not render a frame every refresh period the user will see irregular UI transitions.

An application posts a frame for presentation by synchronously rendering its contents in a buffer which is then posted or posting a buffer to which the application is asychronously rendering the content via GL. After the frame is posted and rendered (potentially asynchronosly) it is presented to the user. The time a frame was posted can be obtained via getFramePostedTimeNano(int), the time a frame content was rendered and ready for dsiplay (GL case) via getFrameReadyTimeNano(int), and the time a frame was presented on the screen via getFramePresentedTimeNano(int).

CREATOR

Added in API level 21
Creator<WindowContentFrameStats> CREATOR

Public methods

describeContents

Added in API level 21
int describeContents ()

Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation. For example, if the object will include a file descriptor in the output of writeToParcel(Parcel, int), the return value of this method must include the CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR bit.

Returns
int a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance.

getFramePostedTimeNano

Added in API level 21
long getFramePostedTimeNano (int index)

Get the time a frame at a given index was posted by the producer (e.g. the application). It is either explicitly set or defaulted to the time when the render buffer was posted.

Note: A frame can be posted and still it contents being rendered asynchronously in GL. To get the time the frame content was completely rendered and ready to display call getFrameReadyTimeNano(int).

Parameters
index int: The frame index.
Returns
long The posted time in nanoseconds.

getFrameReadyTimeNano

Added in API level 21
long getFrameReadyTimeNano (int index)

Get the time a frame at a given index was ready for presentation.

Note: A frame can be posted and still it contents being rendered asynchronously in GL. In such a case this is the time when the frame contents were completely rendered.

Parameters
index int: The frame index.
Returns
long The ready time in nanoseconds or UNDEFINED_TIME_NANO if the frame is not ready yet.

toString

Added in API level 21
String toString ()

Returns a string representation of the object. In general, the toString method returns a string that "textually represents" this object. The result should be a concise but informative representation that is easy for a person to read. It is recommended that all subclasses override this method.

The toString method for class Object returns a string consisting of the name of the class of which the object is an instance, the at-sign character `@', and the unsigned hexadecimal representation of the hash code of the object. In other words, this method returns a string equal to the value of:

 getClass().getName() + '@' + Integer.toHexString(hashCode())
 

Returns
String a string representation of the object.

writeToParcel

Added in API level 21
void writeToParcel (Parcel parcel, 
                int flags)

Flatten this object in to a Parcel.

Parameters
parcel Parcel: The Parcel in which the object should be written.
flags int: Additional flags about how the object should be written. May be 0 or PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE.

Hooray!
