Examples include 32 * {@link BreakpointRequest} and {@link ExceptionRequest}. 33 * When an event occurs for which an enabled request is present, 34 * an {@link com.sun.jdi.event.EventSet EventSet} will 35 * be placed on the {@link com.sun.jdi.event.EventQueue EventQueue}. 36 * The collection of existing event requests is 37 * managed by the {@link EventRequestManager}. 38 * <p> 39 * The number of events generated for an event request can be controlled 40 * through filters. Filters provide additional constraints that an event 41 * must satisfy before it is placed on the event queue. Multiple filters can 42 * be used by making multiple calls to filter addition methods such as 43 * {@link ExceptionRequest#addClassFilter(java.lang.String classPattern)}. 44 * Filters are added to an event one at a time only while the event is 45 * disabled. Multiple filters are applied with CUT-OFF AND, in the order 46 * it was added to the request. Only events that satisfy all filters are 47 * placed in the event queue. 48 * <p> 49 * The set of available filters is dependent on the event request, 50 * some examples of filters are: 51 * <ul> 52 * <li>Thread filters allow control over the thread for which events are 53 * generated. 54 * <li>Class filters allow control over the class in which the event 55 * occurs. 56 * <li>Instance filters allow control over the instance in which 57 * the event occurs. 58 * <li>Count filters allow control over the number of times an event 59 * is reported. 60 * </ul> 61 * Filters can dramatically improve debugger performance by reducing the 62 * amount of event traffic sent from the target VM to the debugger VM. 63 * <p> 64 * Any method on <code>EventRequest</code> which 65 * takes <code>EventRequest</code> as an parameter may throw 66 * {@link com.sun.jdi.VMDisconnectedException} if the target VM is 67 * disconnected and the {@link com.sun.jdi.event.VMDisconnectEvent} has been or is 68 * available to be read from the {@link com.sun.jdi.event.EventQueue}. 69 * <p> 70 * Any method on <code>EventRequest</code> which 71 * takes <code>EventRequest</code> as an parameter may throw 72 * {@link com.sun.jdi.VMOutOfMemoryException} if the target VM has run out of memory. 73 * 74 * @see com.sun.jdi.event.BreakpointEvent 75 * @see com.sun.jdi.event.EventQueue 76 * @see EventRequestManager 77 * 78 * @author Robert Field 79 * @since 1.3 80 */ 81 @jdk.Exported 82 public interface EventRequest extends Mirror { 83 84 /** 85 * Determines if this event request is currently enabled. 86 * 87 * @return <code>true</code> if enabled; 88 * <code>false</code> otherwise. 89 */ isEnabled()90 boolean isEnabled(); 91 92 /** 93 * Enables or disables this event request.
