[SOLVED] how to count how many times you used a method

Hello EveryOne :)

Is there a way that alows me to count the number of time that i used a method in a class??

exemple:

Code:

---

public class StudentRecord
{
    public static void main(String Laythe[])
    {

        // Declare Instance Variables;
        private String Name;

        // Set up the name of every single student;
        public void SetName(String Temp)
        {
                Name = Temp;
        }

        // Create Object instance of StudentRecod class;
        StudentRecord LaytheRecord = new StudentRecord();
        StudentRecord NarutoRecord = new StudentRecord();
        StudentRecord DragonRecord = new StudentRecord();

        // Set the names of the sutdents;
        LaytheRecord.SetName("Laythe");
        NarutoRecord.SetName("Naruto");
        DragonRecord.SetName("Dragon");

        // what can i do to count how many times i used the SetName() method?? ;

    }
}

---

give the class an int counter variable and increment it from within the setName method. If you want to know how many times it is called within each instance of the class, then make the counter an instance field. If you'd rather know how many times all instances have called this method, then make the counter a static field.

Thank you very very very much sir Fubarable, it's exactly the way i wanted to be answered, your answer showed me how to make the cake not making it for me :D
