module Agent
# This module contains class methods added to support installing custom
# metric tracers and executing for individual metrics.
#
# == Examples
#
# When the agent initializes, it extends Module with these methods.
# However if you want to use the API in code that might get loaded
# before the agent is initialized you will need to require
# this file:
#
# require 'new_relic/agent/method_tracer'
# class A
# include NewRelic::Agent::MethodTracer
# def process
# ...
# end
# add_method_tracer :process
# end
#
# To instrument a class method:
#
# require 'new_relic/agent/method_tracer'
# class An
# def self.process
# ...
# end
# class << self
# include NewRelic::Agent::MethodTracer
# add_method_tracer :process
# end
# end

# +metric_names+ is either a single name or an array of metric names.
# If more than one metric is passed, the +produce_metric+ option only applies to the first. The
# others are always recorded. Only the first metric is pushed onto the scope stack.
#
# Generally you pass an array of metric names if you want to record the metric under additional
# categories, but generally this *should never ever be done*. Most of the time you can aggregate
# on the server.
