What listener to use?

Hi

Pretty new to this stuff but have been programming in C#, PHP, some C++ and other languages in the past 4-5years.

Now to the question...
When a user interacts with a chest I want to .. do something. Like send a message to the chat.
To register the event I got this in my onEnable():

Code:

pm.registerEvent(Event.Type.BLOCK_INTERACT, [B]playerListener[/B], Priority.Normal, this);

As you can see I placed the playerListener as listener. But should I use the blocklistener instead? Why? To me it seems more logical because Event.Type is BLOCK_* and that should go to the blockListener.

On the side, how to I:
1. Post a 'global' chat message?
2. Send a private chat message to a player?

 

a) you need it to go to the block listener, otherwise it wont/shouldnt work. and you may want to use inventory open event (i think there is one.) To send a message to the player it is player.sendMessage("Put message here. ") and I believe Plugin.Server.announce("message") should do the trick.

 

That's just common sense.

 

Global chat message: getServer().broadcastMessage("Message here.");
Private chat messsage (should be) : getServer().getPlayer("Specific player name here").sendMessage("message here.");
