SendCommand Method

This method sends a command to the server.

Syntax

xmpp.sendCommand(command, [callback])

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for this method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

The SendCommand method will send the Command parameter to the server. The command must be in valid XML format, and must be recognizable to the IMServer.

The SendCommand method should only be used by programmers or users who are connecting to non-standard servers whose command list is not covered by the class. Any responses that are defined in the protocol specification will be returned by the appropriate event. Any non-standard IQ message will be returned by the IQ event. All other responses will be returned by the PITrail event.
