Package com.sun.jdi.request Description

This package is used to request that a JDI event be sent under specified conditions. With the exception of termination events, which are always sent, there is one kind of EventRequest for each kind of Event - for example, BreakpointRequest is used to request a BreakpointEvent. Event requests are created by the EventRequestManager. Events and event processing are defined in the com.sun.jdi.event package.

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.
