Class DeadEvent


  • @Beta
public class DeadEvent
extends Object
    Wraps an event that was posted, but which had no subscribers and thus could not be delivered.

    Registering a DeadEvent subscriber is useful for debugging or logging, as it can detect misconfigurations in a system's event distribution.
