Class PayloadItem<E extends XmlElement>

All Implemented Interfaces:
Element, NamedElement, XmlElement, XmlLangElement

public class PayloadItem<E extends XmlElement> extends Item
This class represents an item that has been, or will be published to a pubsub node. An Item has several properties that are dependent on the configuration of the node to which it has been or will be published.

An Item received from a node (via LeafNode.getItems() or Node.addItemEventListener(org.jivesoftware.smackx.pubsub.listener.ItemEventListener)

An Item created to send to a node (via LeafNode.publish()

  • The id is optional, since the server will generate one if necessary, but should be used if it is meaningful in the context of the node. This value must be unique within the node that it is sent to, since resending an item with the same id will overwrite the one that already exists if the items are persisted.
  • Will require payload if the node configuration has ConfigureFormReader.isDeliverPayloads() set to true.

To customise the payload object being returned from the getPayload() method, you can add a custom parser as explained in ItemProvider.
