onRoomCreated not being called, Room search with properties and players, Getting properties within the server code

Question

I am trying to create a room by the user when there are no rooms currently with the matched properties and with space for the player.

I am currently searching for rooms with

warpClient->joinRoomInUserRange(0, 7, 7);

then checking for a failed join in onConnectDone to create a new room with

std::map <string, string> properties;
properties["level"] = "1";
warpClient->createRoom(std::string("userCreatedRoom"), std::string("Admin"), 8, properties);

but after this, onRoomCreated is never called even though I can see in the server output that the room has been created as I have

@Override
    public void handleCreateRoomRequest(IUser user, IRoom room, HandlingResult result)
    {
        System.out.println(user.getName() + " requested to create room " + room.getName() + " with ID " + room.getId());
        room.setAdaptor(new ChatRoomAdaptor(room));
    }

How do I get my app to callback onRoomCreated?

Is it also possible to search for a room with certain properties, like with using joinRoomWithProperties, but also a certain range of current players?

Also, how do I get the properties of a room from within the server code? I want to find out what "level" property the room so I can apply the appropriate logic but I can only currently see that I can add and remove properties

 

Could someone also follow up this other question?

Hi -

You need to set the zone request listener. The client SDK will then callback the onCreateRoomDone function of the listener.

For a customized search of rooms you'll need to define a zone RPC and implement that on the server.

We are releasing a new update on Friday (March 7) which will contain the ability to access and update properties from the server itself.

Also I've updated your other question.

Hope it helps!

Hi,
I am setting the zone request listener along with the connection request, room request and notification listeners:

AppWarp::Client::initialize(api_key, ip);
    warpClient = AppWarp::Client::getInstance();
    warpClient->setConnectionRequestListener(this);
    warpClient->setRoomRequestListener(this);
    warpClient->setNotificationListener(this);
    warpClient->setZoneRequestListener(this);

Okay, thanks.

Okay, I will be sure to download that then.

are you getting onCreateRoomDone response listener fine now?
Please note that onRoomCreated is a notification callback and not a response callback. You get that if you've subscribed to the lobby and someone creates a new dynamic room.

Ahh, okay. I was just using the wrong response listener. Everything is working now.
