[Java] leaveRoom doesn't work?

[Teemu]

Hi!

I have a problem with leaving room. The process goes like this:
- Connect, login and join to room 1 (success)
- I send public message to room 1 (success)
- Join room 2 without leaving room 1 (success)
- send public message to room 2 (success)
- leave room 2 (fails ->)
- after that I don't get onRoomLeft event, and I can still send messages to room 2

Any ideas what could cause this? Is this a bug or again, am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,

Teemu

I've just made quick test that made all the steps and I didn't have any problem. The second room is left, the event is dispatched and I can't send public messages to the room.

Are you sure you're still in room 1?

[Teemu]

Hmmm, you are right, apparently I do leave from room 1. But when I join to room 2, I use:

sfs.joinRoom(id, "", true);

I thought that when that dontLeave flag is set to true, it should stay also in old room. What am I missing here?

Thanks.

Hi,

How do you check if you're in given room?

The sfs.joinRoom(id, "", true); call is correct and if you're in room 1 then you should stay in it.

I have other client in room 1 and I can see with that other client that user leaves room 1 when he joins room 2.

[patso]

I see. This is really strange. Can you give the debug trace of the SmartFoxClient?

[Teemu]

Ok, I had some faulty code in my application. This room 2 is a dynamic game room, which I first create. Earlier I tried to join that room in onRoomAdded event, because I didn't realize that client joins room automatically after creation.

However, I have exitCurrentRoom set as false in roomProperties, and isGame is set to true. If I put isGame property as false, then the client will stay in room 1 also. Should it work like this?

[patso]

No. You can still be in game room and another room. For example the following code:

Code: Select all

Map<String, Object> params = new HashMap<String, Object>();
params.put("isGame", true);
params.put("exitCurrentRoom", false);
sfs.createRoom("Test Room", 2, params);


will keep the user in the old room. The only difference between regular and game room is that the user is automatically joined into the game room.

[Teemu]

Oh, I found problem by looking SmartFoxClient's source code. There is Boolean exitCurrentRoomBool = (Boolean)roomProperties.get("exitCurrent");

So it's exitCurrent and not exitCurrentRoom as it says in API.

Teemu: just to make things clear
What is written in the API docs is actually correct. The error is that exitCurrent should be exitCurrentRoom. This way it is "aligned" with the Actionscript 2 and 3 API

We will update the Java API very soon, meanwhile you can use exitCurrent as a workaround.

Hope it helps

[Teemu]

Yeah, it helped. It works now.

Thanks for your help!
