ZIM upgrade Guide


This article provides some instructions and considerations for upgrading the ZIM SDK for Android version.

2.18.0 upgrade guide

Warning

Starting from version 2.18.0, the following interfaces have undergone significant changes. Therefore, when upgrading from an older version to version 2.16.0, please read the following guidelines.

Callback on receiving one-to-one messages

The deprecated callback onReceivePeerMessage for receiving one-to-one messages has been replaced by onPeerMessageReceived.

The new callback supports the following features:

  • When a user is online, they can receive one-to-one messages through this callback.
  • When a user logs back into the ZIM SDK, they can receive all one-to-one messages received during their offline period (up to 7 days).
Untitled
// New callback
public void onPeerMessageReceived(ZIM zim, ArrayList<ZIMMessage> messageList,
                                    ZIMMessageReceivedInfo info, String fromUserID) {}

// Old callback
public void onReceivePeerMessage(ZIM zim, ArrayList<ZIMMessage> messageList,
                                    String fromUserID) {}

Callback on receiving room messages

The deprecated callback onReceiveRoomMessage for receiving room messages has been replaced by onRoomMessageReceived.

The new callback supports the following features:

  • When a user is online, they can receive online room messages through this callback.
  • When a user goes from offline to online and is still in the room, they can receive all room messages that were sent during their offline period through this callback.
Untitled
// New callback
public void onRoomMessageReceived(ZIM zim, ArrayList<ZIMMessage> messageList,
                                    ZIMMessageReceivedInfo info, String fromRoomID) {}

// Old callback
public void onReceiveRoomMessage(ZIM zim, ArrayList<ZIMMessage> messageList,
                                    String fromRoomID) {}

The deprecated callback onReceiveGroupMessage for receiving group messages has been replaced by onGroupMessageReceived.

The new callback supports the following features:

  • When the user is online, they can receive online group messages through this callback.
  • When the user logs back into the ZIM SDK, they can receive all group chat messages received during the offline period (up to 7 days) through this callback.

2.16.0 Upgrade Guide

Warning

Starting from version 2.16.0, there are significant changes to the following interfaces. Therefore, when upgrading from an older version to version 2.16.0, please read the following guide.

callCancel

Note

The following changes only apply to advanced mode call invitations.

In the new version of callCancel, if the parameter userIDs contains a userID, this interface will only cancel the invitation for that callee. If the userIDs parameter is empty, this interface will cancel the invitation for all callees.

For the old version of the callCancel interface, regardless of whether the userIDs parameter is empty or not, it is considered as canceling the invitation for all callees.

Since the old version of the ZIM SDK is not compatible with separate cancellation logic, if you need to retain the cancellation logic implemented using the old version of ZIM and also need to use the separate cancellation feature of the new version, please isolate the call functionality between the old and new versions of ZIM.

Usage in 2.16.0 version
Usage in old versions
// Cancel userIdA and userIdB separately
List<String> invitees = new ArrayList<>();
invitees.add("userIdA");
invitees.add("userIdB");
ZIMCallCancelConfig cancelConfig = new ZIMCallCancelConfig();
ZIM.getInstance().callCancel(invitees, "callID", cancelConfig, new ZIMCallCancelSentCallback() {
    @Override
    public void onCallCancelSent(String callID, ArrayList<String> errorInvitees, ZIMError errorInfo) {
        
    }
});;

// Cancel the entire call invitation, can be called successfully when none of the callees in the entire call have accepted    
List<String> invitees = new ArrayList<>();
ZIMCallCancelConfig cancelConfig = new ZIMCallCancelConfig();
ZIM.getInstance().callCancel(invitees, "callID", cancelConfig, new ZIMCallCancelSentCallback() {
    @Override
    public void onCallCancelSent(String callID, ArrayList<String> errorInvitees, ZIMError errorInfo) {

    }
});
