Bug maybe? Calling broadcast even after joining a realtimeChannel results in error.

[boulaycote]

Hi,

Here's my problem, I'm trying to call broadcast but am getting

Error while sending message
W  java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot broadcast to a channel you didn't join. Did you forget to call join()?

I have already joined the channel and am -receiving- broadcasts but cannot send any.

I have looked in the codebase of RealtimeChannel and see where the JOINED status is set, and event=system is never received (RealtimeChannel.kt:137), and so _status.value is never set to JOINED.

Any insights?

Seems like the system event is never sent when not listening for postgres changes. I just published 0.9.4-dev-2 for testing purposes. Can you try it out and tell me if it works?

[boulaycote]

Yep this works.

Maybe I should try and listen for any postgres_changes?

[jan-tennert]

No, that's not necessary, if you don't need it. As it works now, I'll publish a full 0.9.4 later with this fix included

Awesome thanks

This appears to have fixed a bug within Presence as well, where I could not get the payload data from the joins.

And now I can.

Fixed in 0.9.4
