public class ItemExpireEvent extends ItemEvent
Event that is fired when an ItemEntity's age has reached its maximum lifespan. Adding extra life time will prevent the ItemEntity from being flagged as dead, thus staying its removal from the world.

Note that using this event, you can ony extend the lifespan up to Short.MAX_VALUE - 1 ticks (27.5 minutes). To extend an item's lifespan above that, use either ItemEntity.setExtendedLifetime() or ItemEntity.setUnlimitedLifetime().

This event will only be fired server-side.
