Method Detail

handleCommand

java.lang.String handleCommand(IChatRoomContainer chatRoomContainer,
                               java.lang.String inputLine)

Detect and handle input commands. If this handler successfully handles the line as a command and does not expect the line to be passed on as chat input, it should return null. If it does not process the line as a command, and the inputLine should be sent along as chat, it should return a non-null String.

Parameters:

chatRoomContainer - the IChatRoomContainer instance that is to receive the input line. If null then the input line is intended for the IChatRoomManager itself.

inputLine - the input line holding the prospective command.

Returns:

null if the command has been processed and should not be sent along as chat. Non-null if the inputLine should be forwarded on as chat.
