Interface TimelineEvent

  • public interface TimelineEvent

    A TimelineEvent represents an "action" or "event" that occurred on the Resource backing the Timeline that provided this event. Timline events can only be retrieved via a Timeline. An event has a TimelineEventType. The types available are defined by the TimelineEventProviders registered in the system and may vary.

    An event's basic constituents are its type (see getType()), the time of the occurrence (see getTime()) and the action (see getAction()), and more.
