# Interface MethodExitEvent

All Superinterfaces:
  `Event`, `Locatable`, `LocatableEvent`, `Mirror`

public interface MethodExitEvent extends LocatableEvent
Notification of a method return in the target VM. This event is generated after all code in the method has executed, but the location of this event is the last executed location in the method. Method exit events are generated for both native and non-native methods. Method exit events are not generated if the method terminates with a thrown exception.
