## Field Details

### CLASSNAME

public static final String CLASSNAME
Property key representing the classname of the JavaSamplerClient to user.

See Also:
  - Constant Field Values

### ARGUMENTS

public static final String ARGUMENTS
Property key representing the arguments for the JavaSamplerClient.

See Also:
  - Constant Field Values

## Constructor Details

### JavaSampler

public JavaSampler()
Create a JavaSampler.

## Method Details

### clone

public Object clone()

Specified by:
  `clone` in interface `org.apache.jmeter.testelement.TestElement`
Overrides:
  `clone` in class `AbstractTestElement`

### setArguments

public void setArguments(Arguments args)
Set the arguments (parameters) for the JavaSamplerClient to be executed with.

Parameters:
  `args` - the new arguments. These replace any existing arguments.

### getArguments

public Arguments getArguments()
Get the arguments (parameters) for the JavaSamplerClient to be executed with.

Returns:
  the arguments

### setClassname

public void setClassname(String classname)
Sets the Classname attribute of the JavaConfig object

Parameters:
  `classname` - the new Classname value

### getClassname

public String getClassname()
Gets the Classname attribute of the JavaConfig object

Returns:
  the Classname value

### sample

public SampleResult sample(Entry entry)
Performs a test sample. The `sample()` method retrieves the reference to the Java client and calls its `runTest()` method.

Specified by:
  `sample` in interface `Sampler`
Parameters:
  `entry` - the Entry for this sample
Returns:
  test SampleResult
See Also:
  - `JavaSamplerClient.runTest(JavaSamplerContext)`

### testStarted

public void testStarted()
Description copied from interface: `TestStateListener`

Called just before the start of the test from the main engine thread. This is before the test elements are cloned. Note that not all the test variables will have been set up at this point.

N.B. testStarted() and testEnded() are called from different threads.

Specified by:
  `testStarted` in interface `TestStateListener`
See Also:
  - `StandardJMeterEngine.run()`

### testStarted

public void testStarted(String host)
Description copied from interface: `TestStateListener`

Called just before the start of the test from the main engine thread. This is before the test elements are cloned. Note that not all the test variables will have been set up at this point.

N.B. testStarted() and testEnded() are called from different threads.

Specified by:
  `testStarted` in interface `TestStateListener`
Parameters:
  `host` - name of host
See Also:
  - `StandardJMeterEngine.run()`

### testEnded

public void testEnded()
Method called at the end of the test. This is called only on one instance of JavaSampler. This method will loop through all of the other JavaSamplers which have been registered (automatically in the constructor) and notify them that the test has ended, allowing the JavaSamplerClients to cleanup.

Specified by:
  `testEnded` in interface `TestStateListener`
See Also:
  - `StandardJMeterEngine.stopTest()`

### testEnded

public void testEnded(String host)
Description copied from interface: `TestStateListener`

Called once for all threads after the end of a test. This will use the same element instances as at the start of the test.

N.B. testStarted() and testEnded() are called from different threads.

Specified by:
  `testEnded` in interface `TestStateListener`
Parameters:
  `host` - name of host
See Also:
  - `StandardJMeterEngine.stopTest()`

### applies

public boolean applies(ConfigTestElement configElement)
Description copied from class: `AbstractSampler`
Does configElement apply to Sampler

Specified by:
  `applies` in interface `ConfigMergabilityIndicator`
Overrides:
  `applies` in class `AbstractSampler`
Parameters:
  `configElement` - `ConfigTestElement`
Returns:
  boolean
See Also:
  - `AbstractSampler.applies(org.apache.jmeter.config.ConfigTestElement)`

### interrupt

public boolean interrupt()
Description copied from interface: `Interruptible`
Interrupt the current operation if possible.

Specified by:
  `interrupt` in interface `Interruptible`
Returns:
  `true` if there was an operation to interrupt.
