# Interface VMDeathRequest

All Superinterfaces:
  `EventRequest`, `Mirror`

public interface VMDeathRequest extends EventRequest
Request for notification when the target VM terminates. When an enabled VMDeathRequest is satisfied, an `event set` containing a `VMDeathEvent` will be placed on the `EventQueue`. The collection of existing VMDeathRequests is managed by the `EventRequestManager`

Even without creating a VMDeathRequest, a single unsolicited VMDeathEvent will be sent with a `suspend policy` of `SUSPEND_NONE`. This request would typically be created so that a VMDeathEvent with a suspend policy of `SUSPEND_ALL` will be sent. This event can be used to assure completion of any processing which requires the VM to be alive (e.g. event processing). Note: the unsolicited VMDeathEvent will still be sent.
