Broadcaster

Overview

The Broadcaster object facilitates real-time communication and message broadcasting to clients connected to the same channel, offering methods for message sending, channel management, and listener identification.

Functionality

Broadcasters can send messages to all other listeners on their channel using the broadcastMessage(message) method. The object also allows retrieval of the channel's name via getChannelName() and the broadcaster's nickname using getName(). To clean up resources or stop listening, the destroy() method unregisters the broadcaster from the channel.
