Event action scope
The fields of an event are part of the event declaration. An event field’s scope depends on where it is declared. When an event also includes action definitions, the statements in the action can reference the event’s fields as simple identifiers. From the point of view of an event’s action, the fields can be said to be scoped to the event.
