java - Room - getUserCount vs howManyUsers

[Menser]

Hey-

Quick question, in the server side java api i see getUserCount and howManyUsers.

What is the difference, if i go by there names, they would appear to be the same. They also both return an int. howManyUsers lacks a description in the docs though....

Thanks

howManyUsers is older and it's being dropped in favor of getUserCount. It's going to be deprecated.

Btw, thanks for noticing it's been there for a while

Does getUserCount return a list of all players and spectators or only players?

The description says:

getUserCount

public int getUserCount()

Returns:
The number of clients in this room

[Lapo]

getUserCount(): returns the number of users, not spectators (in case of game rooms)
getSpectatorCount(): returns the number of spectators (in case of game rooms)
howManyUsers(): return the total amount of users + spectators

hope it helps
