Inheritance	PublicMessageRequest EsRequest EsMessage flash.events.Event

This class is used to send a public message to a room that the user is in. A public message can contain a chat message and an optional EsObject. To send a public message to a room you must specify the room id and zone id. Public messages can be captured by a server-side event handler and modified or stopped. If the room has language filters enabled then the filter will be applied to the message. This shows how to send a simple public message to a room with no EsObject attached.

private var _es:ElectroServer;
private var _room:Room;
private function initialize():void {
        _es.engine.addEventListener(MessageType.PublicMessageEvent.name, onPublicMessageEvent);
}
private function sendTestMessage():void {
        //create the message object
        var pmr:PublicMessageRequest = new PublicMessageRequest();
        //configure it
        pmr.message = "Hello World!";
        pmr.roomId = _room.id;
        pmr.zoneId = _room.zoneId;
        //send it
        _es.engine.send(pmr);
}

        pmr.roomId = _room.id;
        pmr.zoneId = _room.zoneId;
        //create an EsObject to send
        var esob:EsObject = new EsObject();
        esob.setBoolean("playAudioWithMessage", true);
        //put it on the message
        pmr.esObject = esob;
        //send it
        _es.engine.send(pmr);
}
private function onPublicMessageEvent(e:PublicMessageEvent):void {
        trace(e.userName + " says '" + e.message + "'");
        trace("playAudioWithMessage: " + e.esObject.getBoolean("playAudioWithMessage").toString());
}
