How to recieve messages having photos and videos? #9

I've implemented many methods in DefaultUpdatesHandler and I recieve none of the messages with a file attached. How can I recieve them?

They arrive in normal messages but with Media content

afshar-mohammad commented 7 years ago

Actually I assume that there should be a function with an update as argument which returns TLAbsMessageMedia when we call update.getMessage() , so that I can handle the media content, but there is none.

TLAbsMessage cannot be converted to for example TLMessageMediaPhoto, so basically I can't handle photo messages in onTLUpdateNewMessageCustom(TLUpdateNewMessage update) because update.getMessage() is a TLAbsMessage. Then where do media messages go!?

oh I got it!! update.getMessage().getMedia() does it! thanks!

I'm really wondering how Telegram employees not get confused with it!! They've made the worst API I've ever used so far in terms of structure and order!
