+/**
+ * Base class for events, to be subclassed in order to define events and their
+ * fields.
+ * <p>
+ * The following example shows how to implement an {@code Event} class.
+ *
+ * <pre>
+ * <code>
+ * import jdk.jfr.Event;
+ * import jdk.jfr.Description;
+ * import jdk.jfr.Label;
+ *
+ * public class Example {
+ *
+ *   &#064;Label("Hello World")
+ *   &#064;Description("Helps programmer getting started")
+ *   static class HelloWorld extends Event {
+ *       &#064;Label("Message")
+ *       String message;
+ *   }
+ *
+ *   public static void main(String... args) {
+ *       HelloWorld event = new HelloWorld();
+ *       event.message = "hello, world!";
+ *       event.commit();
+ *   }
+ * }
+ * </code>
+ * </pre>
+ * <p>
+ * After an event is allocated and its field members are populated, it can be
+ * written to the Flight Recorder system by using the {@code #commit()} method.
+ * <p>
+ * By default, an event is enabled. To disable an event annotate the
+ * {@link Event} class with {@code @Enabled(false)}.
+ * <p>
+ * Supported field types are the Java primitives: {@code boolean}, {@code char},
+ * {@code byte}, {@code short}, {@code int}, {@code long}, {@code float}, and
+ * {@code double}. Supported reference types are: {@code String}, {@code Thread}
+ * and {@code Class}. Arrays, enums, and other reference types are silently
+ * ignored and not included. Fields that are of the supported types can be
+ * excluded by using the transient modifier. Static fields, even of the
+ * supported types, are not included.
+ * <p>
+ * Tools can visualize data in a meaningful way when annotations are used (for
+ * example, {@code Label}, {@code Description}, and {@code Timespan}).
+ * Annotations applied to an {@link Event} class or its fields are included if
+ * they are present (indirectly, directly, or associated), have the
+ * {@code MetadataDefinition} annotation, and they do not contain enums, arrays,
+ * or classes.
+ * <p>
+ * Gathering data to store in an event can be expensive. The
+ * {@link Event#shouldCommit()} method can be used to verify whether an event
+ * instance would actually be written to the system when the
+ * {@code Event#commit()commit} method is invoked. If
+ * {@link Event#shouldCommit()} returns false, then those operations can be
+ * avoided.
+ *
+ * @since 9
