/**
 * Event generated when a <code>LeaseRenewalManager</code> cannot renew
 * a lease.
 * <p>
 * The <code>LeaseRenewalEvent</code> instances are sent to the
 * <code>LeaseListener</code> (if any) associated with a given lease
 * when the lease was added to the managed set. These events are
 * typically generated because one of the following conditions occur:
 * <ul>
 *   <li> After successfully renewing a lease any number of times and
 *	  experiencing no failures, the <code>LeaseRenewalManager</code>
 *	  determines, prior to the next renewal attempt, that the actual
 *	  expiration time of the lease has passed, implying that any
 *	  further attempt to renew the lease would be fruitless.
 *   <li> An indefinite exception occurs during each attempt to renew a
 *	  lease, from the point that the first such exception occurs
 *	  until the point when the <code>LeaseRenewalManager</code>
 *	  determines that lease's actual expiration time has passed.
 *   <li> A definite exception occurs during a lease renewal attempt.
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * Note that bad object exceptions, bad invocation exceptions, and
 * <code>LeaseException</code>s are all considered definite
 * exceptions.
 * <p>
 * This class encapsulates information about both the lease for which the
 * failure occurred, as well as information about the condition that
 * caused the renewal attempt to fail.
 * <p>
 * This class is a subclass of the class <code>EventObject</code>,
 * adding the following additional items of abstract state:
 * <ul>
 *   <li> The lease on which the renewal attempt failed, and to which
 *	  the event pertains
 *   <li> The desired expiration time of the affected lease
 *   <li> The <code>Throwable</code> associated with the last renewal
 *	  attempt (if any)
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * In addition to the methods of the <code>EventObject</code> class,
 * this class defines methods through which this additional state may be
 * retrieved.
 * <p>
 * The source associated with a <code>LeaseRenewalEvent</code> will be
 * the <code>LeaseRenewalManager</code> that generated the event.
