<h1>Message Events Support</h1>
This extension is used to request and respond to events relating to the delivery,
display, and composition of messages. There are three stages in this extension: 1) Request for
event notifications, 2) Receive the event notification requests and send event notifications, and
3) Receive the event notifications.
<p>For more information on each stage please follow these links:</p>

<h2><a name="reqevnot">Requesting Event Notifications</a></h2>
<h3>Description</h3>
In order to receive event notifications for a given message you first have to specify
which events are you interested in. Each message that you send has to request its own event
notifications. Therefore, every message that you send as part of a chat should request its own event
notifications.
<h3>Usage</h3>
The class <i>MessageEventManager</i> provides an easy way for requesting event notifications. All you have to do is specify
the message that requires the event notifications and the events that you are interested in.
<p>Use the static method <i><b>MessageEventManager.addNotificationsRequests(Message message, boolean offline, boolean
delivered, boolean displayed, boolean composing)</b></i> for requesting event notifications.
</p>
<h3>Example</h3>
Below you can find an example that logs in a user to the server, creates a message, adds the requests
for notifications and sends the message.
<blockquote>
<pre> <font color="#3f7f5f">// Connect to the server and log in</font>
conn1 = new XMPPConnection(host);
conn1.login(server_user1, pass1);
<font color="#3f7f5f">// Create a chat with user2</font>
Chat chat1 = conn1.createChat(user2);
<font color="#3f7f5f">// Create a message to send</font>
Message msg = chat1.createMessage();
msg.setSubject(<font color="#0000FF">"Any subject you want"</font>);
msg.setBody(<font color="#0000FF">"An interesting body comes here..."</font>);
<font color="#3f7f5f">// Add to the message all the notifications requests (offline, delivered, displayed,</font>
<font color="#3f7f5f">// composing)</font>
MessageEventManager.addNotificationsRequests(msg, <font COLOR="#7f0055"><b>true</b></font>, <font COLOR="#7f0055"><b>true</b></font>, <font COLOR="#7f0055"><b>true</b></font>, <font COLOR="#7f0055"><b>true</b></font>);
<font color="#3f7f5f">// Send the message that contains the notifications request</font>
chat1.sendMessage(msg);
</pre>

<h2><a name="lstevnotreq">Reacting to Event Notification Requests</a></h2>
<h3>Description</h3>
You can receive notification requests for the following events: delivered, displayed, composing and offline. You
<b>must</b> listen for these requests and react accordingly.
<h3>Usage</h3>
The general idea is to create a new <i>DefaultMessageEventRequestListener</i> that will listen to the event notifications
requests and react with custom logic. Then you will have to add the listener to the
<i>MessageEventManager</i> that works on
the desired <i>XMPPConnection</i>.
<p>Note that <i>DefaultMessageEventRequestListener</i> is a default implementation of the
<i>MessageEventRequestListener</i> interface.
The class <i>DefaultMessageEventRequestListener</i> automatically sends a delivered notification to the sender of the message
if the sender has requested to be notified when the message is delivered. If you decide to create a new class that
implements the <i>MessageEventRequestListener</i> interface, please remember to send the delivered notification.</p>
<ul>
<li>To create a new <i>MessageEventManager</i> use the <i><b>MessageEventManager(XMPPConnection)</b></i> constructor.
</li>
<li>To create an event notification requests listener create a subclass of <i><b>DefaultMessageEventRequestListener</b></i> or
create a class that implements the <i><b>MessageEventRequestListener</b></i> interface.
</li>
<li>To add a listener to the messageEventManager use the MessageEventManager's message
<i><b>addMessageEventRequestListener(MessageEventRequestListener)</b></i>.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Example</h3>
Below you can find an example that connects two users to the server. One user will create a message, add the requests
for notifications and will send the message to the other user. The other user will add a
<i>DefaultMessageEventRequestListener</i>
to a <i>MessageEventManager</i> that will listen and react to the event notification requested by the other user.
<blockquote>
<pre> <font color="#3f7f5f">// Connect to the server and log in the users</font>

conn1.login(server_user1, pass1);
conn2 = new XMPPConnection(host);

<h2><a name="lstevnot">Reacting to Event Notifications</a></h2>
<h3>Description</h3>
Once you have requested for event notifications you will start to receive notifications of events. You can
receive notifications of the following events: delivered, displayed, composing, offline and cancelled. You
will probably want to react to some or all of these events.
<h3>Usage</h3>

and react with custom logic. Then you will have to add the listener to the <i>MessageEventManager</i> that works on
