Interface MethodExitRequest

All Superinterfaces:
EventRequest, Mirror

public interface MethodExitRequest
extends EventRequest

Request for notification when a method returns in the target VM. When an enabled MethodExitRequest is hit, an event set containing a MethodExitEvent will be placed on the EventQueue. The collection of existing MethodExitRequests is managed by the EventRequestManager

Method Detail

addThreadFilter

public void addThreadFilter(ThreadReference thread)
Restricts the events generated by this request to those in this thread.
Parameters:
thread - the thread to filter on.
Throws:
VMMismatchException - if a Mirror argument and this mirror do not belong to the same VirtualMachine.
InvalidRequestStateException - if this request is currently enabled. Filters may be added only to disabled requests.

addClassFilter

public void addClassFilter(ReferenceType refType)
Restricts the events generated by this request to those whose method is in the given reference type or any of its subtypes. An event will be generated for any location in a reference type that can be safely cast to the given reference type.
Parameters:
refType - the reference type to filter on.
Throws:
VMMismatchException - if a Mirror argument and this mirror do not belong to the same VirtualMachine.
InvalidRequestStateException - if this request is currently enabled. Filters may be added only to disabled requests.

addClassFilter

public void addClassFilter(String classPattern)
Restricts the events generated by this request to those whose method is in a class whose name matches a restricted regular expression. Regular expressions are limited to exact matches and patterns that begin with '*' or end with '*'; for example, "*.Foo" or "java.*".
Parameters:
classPattern - the pattern String to filter for.
Throws:
InvalidRequestStateException - if this request is currently enabled. Filters may be added only to disabled requests.

addClassExclusionFilter

public void addClassExclusionFilter(String classPattern)
Restricts the events generated by this request to those whose method is in a class whose name does not match this restricted regular expression. Regular expressions are limited to exact matches and patterns that begin with '*' or end with '*'; for example, "*.Foo" or "java.*".
Parameters:
