How to send an ingame message?

[Spork]

I can't figure out how to send a message ingame, I can figure out how to send key events to the bot but I don't think splitting strings to char arrays and for looping through them to send messages is very efficient lol.

Is there a better way? I can't find one in the API and have thoroughly googled.

Edit:

messages = (ArrayList<String>) getChatbox().getMessages(MessageType.PLAYER);
    	String message;
    	if(messages.size() > 0) {
    		message = messages.get(messages.size() - 1);
    	} else {
    		message = "";
    	}

This code works when the bot loads, but after the chatbox updates with a new public message it crashes with an indexOutOfBounds exception: -1 @line 45

After researching this it seems others have this issue and it might have been a game update that broke this function?

Don't cast it like that. Just use the array.

Don't cast it like that. Just use the array.

 

Eclipse throws an error when I don't cast ArrayList<String> for some reason. I think I'll clean and rebuild my project and see if that resolves.

 

Edit: Clean > Rebuild resolved the issue.
