## Class BoundedMeter

- java.lang.Object
- - jdk.management.resource.SimpleMeter
  - - jdk.management.resource.NotifyingMeter
    - - jdk.management.resource.BoundedMeter

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    ResourceMeter, ResourceRequest

      public class BoundedMeter
      extends NotifyingMeter
      implements ResourceMeter, ResourceRequest

  A BoundedMeter enforces an upper bound, provides an approver callback for changes and allocates from an optional parent. Approval callbacks occur upon crossing the granularity threshold and when the bound is exceeded; the approval callback occurs before the bounds check. All requests are granted in full or not granted. Requests that are denied are not allocated from the parent.
  Since:
    8u40
