Delegate DelegateOnDataChannel

Represents the method that will be invoked when a new data channel is added to the RTCPeerConnection.

Namespace: Unity.WebRTC

Assembly: Unity.WebRTC.dll

Syntax

public delegate void DelegateOnDataChannel(RTCDataChannel channel)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
RTCDataChannel	channel	The RTCDataChannel that has been added to the connection.

Remarks

The DelegateOnDataChannel is triggered when a new data channel is established, typically as a result of the remote peer creating a channel. This provides an opportunity to configure the new channel, such as setting message handlers or adjusting properties. Ensuring the application is prepared to handle the new data channel is crucial for seamless peer-to-peer communication. This delegate is typically assigned to the OnDataChannel property.

Examples

using UnityEngine;
using Unity.WebRTC;

public class DataChannelHandlerExample : MonoBehaviour
{
    private void Start()
    {
        var peerConnection = new RTCPeerConnection();

        // Assign the delegate to handle the OnDataChannel event
        peerConnection.OnDataChannel = (channel) =>
        {
            Debug.Log("A new data channel has been added: " + channel.Label);
            channel.OnMessage = (bytes) =>
            {
                string message = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(bytes);
                Debug.Log("Received message on new channel: " + message);
            };
        };
    }
}
