# Class DefaultEvent

Object
AbstractMetadata
ModifiableMetadata
ISOMetadata
DefaultEvent

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `Serializable`, `Emptiable`, `LenientComparable`, `IdentifiedObject`, `Event`

public class DefaultEvent extends ISOMetadata implements Event
Identification of a significant collection point within an operation. The following properties are mandatory in a well-formed metadata according ISO 19115:
`MI_Event` `├─identifier……` Event name or number. `│ └─code…………` Alphanumeric value identifying an instance in the namespace. `├─trigger……………` Initiator of the event. `├─context……………` Meaning of the event. `├─sequence…………` Relative time ordering of the event. `└─time……………………` Time the event occurred.

## Limitations

- Instances of this class are not synchronized for multi-threading. Synchronization, if needed, is caller's responsibility.
- Serialized objects of this class are not guaranteed to be compatible with future Apache SIS releases. Serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Apache SIS. For long term storage, use `XML` instead.

Since:
  0.3

- ## Constructor Details

  - ### DefaultEvent

    public DefaultEvent()
    Constructs an initially empty acquisition information.

  - ### DefaultEvent

    public DefaultEvent(Event object)
    Constructs a new instance initialized with the values from the specified metadata object. This is a shallow copy constructor, because the other metadata contained in the given object are not recursively copied.
    Parameters:
      `object` - the metadata to copy values from, or `null` if none.
    See Also:
      - `castOrCopy(Event)`

- ## Method Details

  - ### castOrCopy

    public static DefaultEvent castOrCopy(Event object)
    Returns a SIS metadata implementation with the values of the given arbitrary implementation. This method performs the first applicable action in the following choices:
    - If the given object is `null`, then this method returns `null`.
    - Otherwise if the given object is already an instance of `DefaultEvent`, then it is returned unchanged.
    - Otherwise a new `DefaultEvent` instance is created using the copy constructor and returned. Note that this is a shallow copy operation, because the other metadata contained in the given object are not recursively copied.
    Parameters:
      `object` - the object to get as a SIS implementation, or `null` if none.
    Returns:
      a SIS implementation containing the values of the given object (may be the given object itself), or `null` if the argument was null.

  - ### getIdentifier

    public Identifier getIdentifier()
    Returns the event name or number.
    Specified by:
      `getIdentifier` in interface `Event`
    Overrides:
      `getIdentifier` in class `ISOMetadata`
    Returns:
      event name or number, or `null`.

  - ### setIdentifier

    public void setIdentifier(Identifier newValue)
    Sets the event name or number.
    Overrides:
      `setIdentifier` in class `ISOMetadata`
    Parameters:
      `newValue` - the event identifier value.

  - ### getTrigger

    public Trigger getTrigger()
    Returns the initiator of the event.
    Specified by:
      `getTrigger` in interface `Event`
    Returns:
      initiator of the event, or `null`.

  - ### setTrigger

    public void setTrigger(Trigger newValue)
    Sets the initiator of the event.
    Parameters:
      `newValue` - the new trigger value.

  - ### getContext

    Meaning of the event.
    Specified by:
