/**
* Extremely simple callback to determine the frequency that an action should be
* performed.
*
* 'T' is the object type you require to create a more advanced sampling
* function. For example if there is some RPC information in a 'Call' object,
* you might implement Sampler. Then when the RPC is received you can call
* one of the Trace.java functions that takes the extra 'info' parameter, which
* will be passed into the next function you implemented.
*
* For the example above, the next(T info) function may look like this
*
*
* public boolean next(T info) {
* if (info == null) {
* return false;
* } else if (info.getName().equals("get")) {
* return Math.random() > 0.5;
* } else if (info.getName().equals("put")) {
* return Math.random() > 0.25;
* } else {
* return false;
* }
* }
*
*
* This would trace 50% of all gets, 75% of all puts and would not trace any other requests.
