Answered: Leaving room works sometimes and fails other times.

Thu, 31 Dec 2020 19:10:30 +0000

I found out a good way to do this. There is probably a more efficient way, but here's the code I used.

This method is called. RoomLis is then a Room listener I defined earlier.

internal bool LeaveGame()

{

MyClient.LeaveRoom(roomID); //Call leave room

for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++) //Loop a couple times. This is done to check if leave room was succesful. It can take a second.

{

if (RoomLis.GetInRoom() == true) //If still in room, sleep the thread and wait

Thread.Sleep(100);

else // else successful

return true;

}

return false; //If 2 seconds past and still haven't left, assume failure.

}

Below is the code for my room listener

internal class MyRoomListener : RoomRequestListener

{

private bool inRoom;

public bool GetInRoom()

{

return inRoom;

}

public void onJoinRoomDone(RoomEvent eventObj)

{

if (eventObj.getResult() == WarpResponseResultCode.SUCCESS)

{

Console.WriteLine("Room join success");

inRoom = true;

}

else

{

Console.WriteLine("Room join fail");

inRoom = false;

}

public void onLeaveRoomDone(RoomEvent eventObj)

{

if (eventObj.getResult() == WarpResponseResultCode.SUCCESS)

inRoom = false;

else

inRoom = true;

}

//... other handler code

}

Answered: I created a room. Now, how do I get its roomid?

Tue, 29 Dec 2020 20:51:59 +0000

I know this is a little late. But what I did, was I used a property as a key.

Dictionary<string, object> dict = new Dictionary<string, object>();

dict.Add("CODE", randS);

MyClient.CreateRoom(name, owner, maxUsers, dict);

As you can see, I used a dictionary to add a CODE key.

Next I used the next line to search for rooms with specific propetys, aka which for now would only be CODE.

MyClient.GetRoomWithProperties(dict);

Now you can use a ZoneRequestListener to get the actual room id. Below is a onGetMatchedRoomsDone method. This is run whenever GetRoomWithProperties is run. I used a bunch of comments to explain the below code more

public void onGetMatchedRoomsDone(MatchedRoomsEvent matchedRoomsEvent)

{

RoomData[] rdArr = matchedRoomsEvent.getRoomsData(); //return the data of all the rooms

if (rdArr.Length > 0) //if the array is longer than 1 we found at least one room

{

Console.WriteLine("Found rooms");

String roomID = rdArr[0].getId(); //I'm still early in development, so for now I'm just assuming I got one room.

//You could check here to see if you got more than one room which in that case throw an error or something.

WarpClient.GetInstance().JoinRoom(roomID); //Now you can join the room based on the ID.

}

else

{

Console.WriteLine("Can't find rooms");

}

I hope this helps, it's been over a year since OP asked, so maybe someone else who needs help will stumble upon this. I'm pretty new to App warp, so there may definetly be a better way to do this.

Answered: Cant join a room

Sat, 28 Mar 2020 21:01:36 +0000

The solution was that the client that is creating the room also needs to join and subscribe it!

Otherwise the room is not available to other clients!

Answered: send a move while not passing the turn

Mon, 24 Sep 2018 13:42:22 +0000

Hi Omer,

This overloaded method is available if you want to implement custom turn management logic instead of using default one.

To use it first you have to tell the server that you are not going to use default turn management logic while calling stratGame API. startGame APi also has a overloaded method which will ask you two more parameter, which is as follows:

public void startGame (bool isDefaultLogic, String nextTurn)

You dont want to use default logic then pass first parameter as false and second parameter as the user name whose turn will be first just after starting the game.

Then you can go ahead the sendMove API with the nextTurn parameter to set the next tturn every time a move is sent by the current user.

I hope it helps.

Thanks.

Answered: There is little bit delay in onChatReceived, It doesn't synchronise with all connected user of room.

Fri, 22 Jun 2018 09:19:45 +0000

Hi,

The appwarp messages delivery time depends on many factors which includes the client side network strength, device hardware etc, hence you may observe delay on different devices depending on the network strength available on device and device hardware.

How much delay you are observing and how many users are available in room?

Thanks.

Answered: Upcoming European Data Security Guideline at May, 25th 2018

Tue, 10 Apr 2018 08:46:00 +0000

Hello Priyanka Singh,

first of all I would like to state that I find your product cool and very professional.

And many thanks for your answer, but my question is from more formal nature: Securing user data by ACL technology is the one thing - but it's not sufficient to fullfill the European Data Security Guideline 2018. Now, to cut a long story short: this guideline forsees, that every part of an IT-Service (App or the underlying third party services - like i.e. App42, Flurry, Google, Apple iCloud) - who manage individualized personal user data (i.e. names, addresses, eMail etc) must ensure complete data transperency what and how they're doing things with the data (thanks to Facebook ) . And without the dedicated consent of the user, such companies are not allowed to sell any of this data. All this things are now handled by this guideline and all IT-companies or indie developers like me - must have a Privacy Policy which refers to it. Apple, Google, Dropbox, Flurry have already adjusted their guidelines to fullfill requirements.

Therefore I need also a reference to AppShepertz Privacy Policy to incoporate this reference into my Privacy Policy. Believe me, here in Europe, but also in the US most companies and indies have underestimated that thing (me too)... and now they all are in a complete trouble to match the due date May 25th.

Best regards

Werner

Answered: Delete a room after given time

Tue, 13 Feb 2018 07:18:17 +0000

Hi,

Using AppWarp S2, you can achieve this feature as it allows you to customise the server side code as well. AppWarp2 is on-premise solution where you get the server side SDK as well as Client side SDK. You can create your own server project using our SDK and customise the server as per your requirement. If you are already using AppWarpS2 then in the Room Adapter class you can write your logic to delete room after specified time using the delteRoom API.

Let me know if you have any further query, I will be happy to help.

Answered: how to return value from onSuccess to other function in android?

Mon, 29 Jan 2018 06:44:54 +0000

Hi,

All the App42 APIs are async so you can not return any value from the callback onSuccess to its calling method. The best way is to write a separate method to perform a task which depends on the value you get in the onSuccess callback. Once you have that value, you call that method from the callback and pass the values as parameter.

I hope this will help.

Thanks.

Answered: How to re-authentication with appWarp server when got AuthError result code when do connecting?

Mon, 11 Sep 2017 09:02:07 +0000

Hi Khang Pham Thanh,

Appwarp requires unique user name for each device trying to connect to AppWarp. If one user is already connected a user name, say "Nick", and another user will try to connect with the same user name then he will be getting auth_error(error code 1). This is the intended behavior of AppWarp to maintain user uniqueness in the game running in real time.

If you are already connected to AppWarp on device-1 and want to connect to AppWarp from device-2 then you have to disconnect first from device-1 then try to connect from device-2 in case of the same user name.

Thanks.

When i create a new notification listener it simply won't call the function after i have send a private chat and it worked perfectly fine with the other notification listener but when i try to make a new notification listener it dosen't work.
