Request for notification when the contents of a field are accessed in the target VM. This event will be triggered when the specified field is accessed by Java
TM programming language code or by a Java Native Interface (JNI) get function (
Get<Type>Field, GetStatic<Type>Field
). Access by JDI does not trigger this event. When an enabled AccessWatchpointRequest is satisfied, an {@link com.sun.jdi.event.EventSet event set} containing an{@link com.sun.jdi.event.AccessWatchpointEvent AccessWatchpointEvent} will be placedon the {@link com.sun.jdi.event.EventQueue EventQueue}. The collection of existing ExceptionRequests is managed by the {@link EventRequestManager}The collection of existing watchpoints is managed by the {@link EventRequestManager}.
