LocalNetworkDiscovery.clientAdded problem

[Franto]

Hi all,

I would like to ask if somone is experiencing same problem as I did.
On LocalNetworkDiscovery.clientAdded event, I have always
event.client.clientName null. There is no difference if local client
is added or client using Cirrus.

I want to use it to display chat message evt.client.clientName+"
joined the chatroom"

Thank you
Franto

I guess you have set the clientName property on the
LocalNetworkDiscovery instance?

Dirk.

Hi Dirk,

yes, I've set. This is the mobile application, so I've set clientName
in viewActivate handler. Maybe it's problem that I set clientName
late? Is it important when I set clientName?

Hi Franto,

strange. I just had a quick look at the codebase and it definitely should announce changes to the clientName property correctly. 

I will try to figure out why it's not working.

Hi Dirk,

thank you for your effort, let me know, if you will find the problem.
If I can help you somehow, let me know.

ok - I just found that the "null" clientName is the correct
behaviour.

When LocalNetworkDiscovery dispatches the clientAdded event, it
actually picks up a "low level" event from the NetGroup which just
indicates that a new client connected to the network. But at that
time, the new client has not yet send his clientName (this is more an
architectural problem as you cannot send arbitrary data upon
connecting to a NetGroup)

So if you listen for the ClientEvent.CLIENT_UPDATE event, you will get
notification when the real clientName of a client has been received.

Cheers,
Dirk.

Thank you Dirk for explanation. I will try to listen for
CLIENT_UPDATE. Question is how often is CLIENT_UPDATE dispatched. I
will find that out

Thank you again...
