Class BlockBreakEvent

java.lang.Object
All Implemented Interfaces:
Cancellable

public class BlockBreakEvent extends BlockExpEvent implements Cancellable
Called when a block is broken by a player.

If you wish to have the block drop experience, you must set the experience value above 0. By default, experience will be set in the event if:

  1. The player is not in creative or adventure mode
  2. The player can loot the block (ie: does not destroy it completely, by using the correct tool)
  3. The player does not have silk touch
  4. The block drops experience in vanilla Minecraft

Note: Plugins wanting to simulate a traditional block drop should set the block to air and utilize their own methods for determining what the default drop for the block being broken is and what to do about it, if anything.

If a Block Break event is cancelled, the block will not break and experience will not drop.
