display_name

display_name : str | None = 'Number of functions calling this function (counting calls from template instances only once)'

Description of the metric shown in the dashboard. If None, rfg_metric_name is used.

 

max_value

max_value : int | None = 5

Maximum allowed value. None if unlimited.

 

min_value

min_value : int | None = 0

Minimum allowed value. None if unlimited.

 

rfg_metric_name

rfg_metric_name : str = 'Metric.Calling.CPP'

Name of the node attribute storing the metric value in the RFG.
