Publish metrics belonging to the specified sequence of (unique) categories, of specified length numCategories. Optionally specify a resetFlag that determines if the collected metrics are reset as part of this operation. This operation will collect aggregated metric values for each enabled category in categories from registered callbacks as well as from its own CollectorRepository, and then publish those records using any publishers associated with the category. Any individual category in categories that is not enabled is ignored. If resetFlag is true, the metrics being collected are reset to their default state. The metrics manager provides publishers the time interval over which the published metrics were collected. This interval is computed as the elapsed time since the last time the category was reset (either through a call to the publish or collectSample methods). If a category has not previously been reset then this interval is taken to be the elapsed time since the creation of this metrics manager. The behavior is undefined unless 0 <= numCategories, categories refers to a contiguous sequence of (at least) numCategories, and each category in categories appears only once.
