Hi,

I read that i need to assign the userID to the client after login when using the custom login extension.
Can i send the userID through my extension response or do i have to make the client pull it from the server ?
I can't find it in the server docs.
Any tips ?

Each users comes with a userId and userName. You can confirm this by analyzing the incoming messages from the server.

You set the userId/userName like this:

smartFox.myUserId = thatUserId
smartFox.myUserName = thatUserId

where smartFox is your SmartFoxClient instance.

yes but that won't work for me. I need to get the ID through my extension if possible but i can't seem to get it there.
Is it possible ? So i can send the id to the client.

Yes - you can send userId/userName along with login status command (i.e. logOK) via sendResponse from your zone extension.

ok but how can i get the userId in the extension ?
i just tried :

in the handlerequest :
var u = _server.instance.getUserByChannel(chan)
newUser = u.getId();
in the handleInternalEvent :
response.myID=newUser;

but that gave me and undefined.

It's u.getUserId()

Please refer to this API documentation --> http://www.smartfoxserver.com/docs/docP ... /index.htm.

Thanks BigFish, all is working now.
