31This package is used to request that a JDI
32event be sent under specified conditions.
33With the exception of termination events, which are
34always sent, there is one kind of
35{@link com.sun.jdi.request.EventRequest} for each kind of
36{@link com.sun.jdi.event.Event Event} - for example,
37{@link com.sun.jdi.request.BreakpointRequest} is used to request a
38{@link com.sun.jdi.event.BreakpointEvent BreakpointEvent}.
39Event requests are created by the
40{@link com.sun.jdi.request.EventRequestManager}.
41Events and event processing are defined in the
42{@link com.sun.jdi.event} package.
43<p>
44Methods may be added to the interfaces in the JDI packages in future
45releases. Existing packages may be renamed if the JDI becomes a standard
46extension.
