      • newRootEvent

        public Event newRootEvent()
        Description copied from interface: StructuredEventLog
        Create a new root event. Root events occur in response to some external stimulus, such as a user request, a timer being triggered or a threshold being crossed. The level of the event is INFO by default. The root event will generate a new traceId, and will have a empty parent Id. If this information is provided, as can be the case with a user request, they can be set with Event#traceId(String) and Event#parentId(String).

      • unstash

        public Event unstash()
        Description copied from interface: StructuredEventLog
        Retrieves an event from the call stack. This can be used, along with Event#stash(), to bridge an event across an API without having to modify the API to pass the event object. For example, the child event, METHOD2, in the following example, will share the traceId with METHOD1, and METHOD1's id will be match the parentId of METHOD2.
         void method1() {
            Event e = logger.newRootEvent()
                .timed()
                .resource("foo", bar);
        
            e.stash();
            unmodifiableMethod();
            e.log(Events.METHOD1);
         }
        
         void unmodifiableMethod() {
            logger.unstash().newChildEvent().log(Events.METHOD2);
         }
         
        This should be used sparingly.
