Detailed Description

This is an implementation of XEP-0045 (Multi-User Chat).

Usage is pretty simple:

Derrive an object from MUCRoomHandler and implement its virtuals:

class MyClass : public MUCRoomHandler
{
...
};

Then create a new MUCRoom object and pass it a valid ClientBase, the desired full room JID, your MUCRoomHandler-derived object, and an optional MUCRoomConfigHandler-derived object.

void MyOtherClass::joinRoom( const std::string& room, const std::string& service,
const std::string& nick )
{
MyClass* myHandler = new MyClass(...);
JID roomJID( room + "@" + service + "/" + nick );
m_room = new MUCRoom( m_clientbase, roomJID, myHandler, 0 );
m_room->join();
}

When joining the room was successful, the various MUCRoomHandler functions will start to be called. If joining was not successful, MUCRoomHandler::handleMUCError() will be called, giving a hint at the reason for the failure.

To set up your own room, or to configure an existing room, you should also derive a class from MUCRoomConfigHandler and register it with the MUCRoom (either by using it with MUCRoom's constructor, or by calling registerMUCRoomConfigHandler()).

To quickly create an instant room, see InstantMUCRoom.

To quickly create an instant room to turn a one-to-one chat into a multi-user chat, see UniqueMUCRoom.

To send a private message to a room participant, use gloox::MessageSession with the participant's full room JID (room@service/nick).

Member Enumeration Documentation

Allowable history request types. To disable sending of history, use any value except HistoryUnknown and specify a zero-length time span (using setRequestHistory()).

Enumerator:
HistoryMaxChars 

Limit the total number of characters in the history to "X" (where the character count is the characters of the complete XML stanzas, not only their XML character data).

HistoryMaxStanzas 

Limit the total number of messages in the history to "X".

HistorySeconds 

Send only the messages received in the last "X" seconds.

HistorySince 

Send only the messages received since the datetime specified (which MUST conform to the DateTime profile specified in Jabber Date and Time Profiles (XEP-0082)).

HistoryUnknown 

It is up to the service to decide how much history to send. This is the default.

Definition at line 93 of file mucroom.h.

Available operations.

Enumerator:
OpNone 

No operation.

OpInviteTo 

Invitation being sent to soemone.

OpInviteFrom 

Invitation received from someone.

OpDeclineTo 

Someone's invitation declined.

OpDeclineFrom 

Someone declined an invitation.

Definition at line 110 of file mucroom.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MUCRoom ( ClientBase parent,
const JID nick,
MUCRoomHandler mrh,
MUCRoomConfigHandler mrch = 0 
)

Creates a new abstraction of a Multi-User Chat room. The room is not joined automatically. Use join() to join the room, use leave() to leave it.

Parameters
parentThe ClientBase object to use for the communication.
nickThe room's name and service plus the desired nickname in the form room@service/nick.
mrhThe MUCRoomHandler that will listen to room events. May be 0 and may be specified later using registerMUCRoomHandler(). However, without one, MUC is no joy.
mrchThe MUCRoomConfigHandler that will listen to room config result. Defaults to 0 initially. However, at the latest you need one when you create a new room which is not an instant room. You can set a MUCRoomConfigHandler using registerMUCRoomConfigHandler().

Member Function Documentation

void acknowledgeInstantRoom ( )
inline

Use this function to accept the room's default configuration. This function is useful only after MUCRoomHandler::handleMUCRoomCreation() was called. This is a NOOP at any other time.

Definition at line 665 of file mucroom.h.

void addHistory ( const std::string &  message,
const JID from,
const std::string &  stamp 
)

Use this function to add history to a (newly created) room. The use case from the MUC spec is to add history to a room that was created in the process of a transformation of a one-to-one chat to a multi-user chat.

Parameters
messageA reason for declining the invitation.
fromThe JID of the original author of this part of the history.
stampThe datetime of the original message in the format: 20061224T12:15:23Z
Note
You should not attempt to use this function before MUCRoomHandler::handleMUCParticipantPresence() was called for the first time.

Definition at line 773 of file mucroom.cpp.

MUCRoomAffiliation affiliation ( ) const
inline

Returns the user's current affiliation with this room.

Returns
The user's current affiliation.

Definition at line 427 of file mucroom.h.

void ban ( const std::string &  nick,
const std::string &  reason 
)
inline

Use this function to ban a user from the room. Depending on service and/or room configuration and role/affiliation this may not always succeed. Usually, an affiliation of admin is necessary.

Definition at line 702 of file mucroom.cpp.

void storeList ( const MUCListItemList  items,
MUCOperation  operation 
)

Use this function to store a (modified) list for the room.

Parameters
itemsThe list of items. Example:
You want to set the Voice List. The privilege of Voice refers to the role of Participant. Furthermore, you only store the delta of the original (Voice)List. (Optionally, you could probably store the whole list, however, remeber to include those items that were modified, too.) You want to, say, add one occupant to the Voice List, and remove another one. Therefore you store:
  • GuyOne, role participant – this guy gets voice granted, he/she is now a participant.
  • GuyTwo, role visitor – this guy gets voice revoked, he/she is now a mere visitor (Visitor is the Role "below" Participant in the privileges hierarchy).
For operations modifying Roles, you should specifiy only the new Role in the MUCListItem structure, for those modifying Affiliations, you should only specify the new Affiliation, respectively. The nickname is mandatory in the MUCListItem structure. Items without nickname will be ignored.

You may specify a reason for the role/affiliation change in the MUCListItem structure. You should not specify a JID in the MUCListItem structure, it will be ignored.

Parameters
operationSee requestList() for a list of available list types. Any other value will be ignored.
