The Event class represents events that happen within the Java environment in a platform independent way. Events typically represent user actions, like typing a key or clicking the mouse. Although this class has been updated for the 1.1 release, it is only used for the 1.0 event model. When using the 1.1 event model, all events are represented by subclasses of java.awt.AWTEvent.
