Do you mean while importing? They are different packages. They aren't necessarily related. Importing java.awt.* doesn't import java.awt.event.*

It's just two different packages.

When you say import java.awt.* it imports only those classes which belong exactly to java.awt package, not to its subpackages.

That's why when you want to use events you have also import java.awt.event.
