Package com.sun.jdi.event

package com.sun.jdi.event

This package defines JDI events and event processing. An Event is always a member of an EventSet, which is retrieved from the EventQueue. Examples of Events include "breakpoints events", "thread creation events" and "virtual machine death event". With the exception of termination events, all events received must be requested with an "EventRequest". The com.sun.jdi.request package defines event requests and event request management.

Methods may be added to the interfaces in the JDI packages in future releases. Existing packages may be renamed if the JDI becomes a standard extension.

Since:

1.3
