[swift-users] Changing presence for MUC...

[Marc Neeley]

I apologize, but when I turn the client tracing on in the code, the output
appears to be encrypted. Is there some sort of switch that removes that?
Regardless, I've attached the file if it helps. This is just the startup and
connection.
In the meantime I'll follow your  other suggestions below.

Thanks,
Marc

Sending it through the PresenceSender is the thing to do, then.

There's three possible outcomes - onJoinComplete for a successful join,
onJoinFailed for an authoritative failure to join, or neither while
Swiften's waiting for the server to tell it one way or the other. It's not
immediately obvious to me what it's not triggering for you - before I start
blaming it on buggy MUC servers, it'd probably be good to check this isn't a
problem with our code - can you send the protocol transcript for the
session, please?

You assumed correctly.

I think you want to join the MUC through the MUCManager exposed on
Client::getMUCManager(). This will sort out the DirectedPresenceSender for
you.

If you're writing a client (or a bot, or whatever) you don't want to be
setting the from attribute on stanzas, not that this will break what you're
doing. Probably.

I suspect something else is at play. Let's see the XML and go from there.
