Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Default Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`boolean`	`isForcedSamplingSupported()`	Returns whether or not this sampling strategy supports 'forced sampling'.
`SamplingResponse`	`shouldTrace(SamplingRequest sampleRequest)`
`default void`	`shutdown()`	Shutdown additional resources created by advanced sampling strategies.

- Method Detail
  - shouldTrace
```
SamplingResponse shouldTrace(SamplingRequest sampleRequest)
```
  - isForcedSamplingSupported
```
boolean isForcedSamplingSupported()
```
    Returns whether or not this sampling strategy supports 'forced sampling'. Forced sampling allows a segment's initial non-sampled decision to be later overriden to sampled. Supporting this feature requires that all segments, sampled or otherwise, be kept in memory for the duration of their existence. Not supporting this feature saves memory and computational capacity.
    
    Returns:
    
    whether or not forced sampling is supported
  - shutdown
```
default void shutdown()
```
    Shutdown additional resources created by advanced sampling strategies.
