/**
* Request for notification when the target VM terminates.
* When an enabled VMDeathRequest is satisfied, an
* {@link com.sun.jdi.event.EventSet event set} containing a
* {@link com.sun.jdi.event.VMDeathEvent VMDeathEvent}
* will be placed on the
* {@link com.sun.jdi.event.EventQueue EventQueue}.
* The collection of existing VMDeathRequests is
* managed by the {@link EventRequestManager}
* <P>
* Even without creating a VMDeathRequest, a single
* unsolicited VMDeathEvent will be sent with a
* {@link EventRequest#suspendPolicy() suspend policy}
* of {@link EventRequest#SUSPEND_NONE SUSPEND_NONE}.
* This request would typically be created so that a
* VMDeathEvent with a suspend policy of
* {@link EventRequest#SUSPEND_ALL 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.
