Identifier (container-core 7.531.17 API)

java.lang.Object
- com.yahoo.metrics.simple.Identifier

```
public class Identifier
extends Object
```
The name of the metric and its n-dimensional position. Basically a pair of a Point and a metric name. Written to be robust against null input as the API gives very little guidance, converting null to empty string/point. Immutable.
