onRoomListUpdate sends a HUGE empty array

Hi,
when onRoomListUpdate is received, the list of room keeps in memory an empty array slot for each room that has been destroyed.

As you can see, after a short time of activity, this is the list I receive:
Don't mind the formatting, its a debug trace output of arrays received.

Code: Select all

onSmartFoxRoomListUpdate({roomList:[0:undefined, 1:[object Room], 2:[object Room], 3:[object Room], 4:[object Room], 5:[object Room], 6:undefined, 7:undefined, 8:undefined, 9:undefined, 10:undefined, 11:undefined, 12:undefined, 13:undefined, 14:undefined, 15:undefined, 16:undefined, 17:undefined, 18:undefined, 19:undefined, 20:undefined, 21:undefined, 22:undefined, 23:undefined, 24:undefined, 25:undefined, 26:undefined, 27:undefined, 28:undefined, 29:undefined, 30:undefined, 31:undefined, 32:undefined, 33:undefined, 34:undefined, 35:undefined, 36:undefined, 37:undefined, 38:undefined, 39:undefined, 40:undefined, 41:undefined, 42:undefined, 43:undefined, 44:undefined, 45:undefined, 46:undefined, 47:undefined, 48:undefined, 49:undefined, 50:undefined, 51:undefined, 52:undefined, 53:undefined, 54:undefined, 55:undefined, 56:undefined, 57:undefined, 58:undefined, 59:undefined, 60:undefined, 61:undefined, 62:undefined, 63:undefined, 64:undefined, 65:undefined, 66:undefined, 67:undefined, 68:undefined, 69:undefined, 70:undefined, 71:undefined, 72:undefined, 73:undefined, 74:undefined, 75:undefined, 76:[object Room], 77:[object Room], 78:[object Room], 79:[object Room], 80:[object Room], 81:[object Room], 82:[object Room], 83:[object Room], 84:[object Room], 85:[object Room], 86:[object Room], 87:[object Room], 88:[object Room], 89:[object Room], 90:[object Room]], success:true})

As you can see, there is plenty of empty slots. The more rooms are created and destroyed, more empty slots appear.

I am afraid that after long activity, the empty array will become HUGE.
Is this a kown bug? Is there a way to overcome this?

thanks

There's nothing to worry about.

The room list received from the server side wasn't received as an array. The list contains data for each room - which has its own id. Once this data is received, an local array of rooms is stored by its id.

i.e.

room_list[40] = roomData;
room_list[50] = roomData;

where 40, and 50 are room ids.

The best way to loop through each room, is by using

for (var id in room_list)
{

}
