Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to model an event emitted on-chain — a smart-contract log, oracle callback, or bridge message — as the occurrent perspective of ledger activity, distinct from the transaction that produced it.

Avoid when

• Avoid for the transaction record itself (that is gmeow:LedgerTransaction, an InformationObject) and avoid treating an emitted event as real-world truth — it proves only that the contract logged it under chain rules.

How to use

• Mint the event with gmeow:logIndex (the EL minimum) naming its position in the block/transaction, link it to its emitting gmeow:SmartContract, and let its temporal extent ride on the gufo:Event spine.

Examples

• ex:transferEvent a gmeow:LedgerEvent; gmeow:logIndex 3.
