```
multiUserChatLight.leave();
```


Change room name
----------------

```
multiUserChatLight.changeRoomName(roomName);
```
*roomName* is a `String`


Change subject
--------------

```
multiUserChatLight.changeSubject(subject);
```
*subject* is a `String`


Set room configurations
-----------------------

```

*roomName* is a `String`


Manage changes on room name, subject and other configurations
-------------------------------------------------------------

```
// check if the message is because of a configurations change
if (message.hasExtension(MUCLightElements.ConfigurationsChangeExtension.ELEMENT, MUCLightElements.ConfigurationsChangeExtension.NAMESPACE)) {
  
  // Get the configurations extension
  MUCLightElements.ConfigurationsChangeExtension configurationsChangeExtension = MUCLightElements.ConfigurationsChangeExtension.from(message);

  // Get new room name
  String roomName = configurationsChangeExtension.getRoomName();

  // Get new subject
  String subject = configurationsChangeExtension.getSubject();

  // Get new custom configurations
  HashMap<String, String> customConfigs = configurationsChangeExtension.getCustomConfigs();

}
```


Get room information
--------------------

**Get configurations** 

```
MUCLightRoomConfiguration configuration = multiUserChatLight.getConfiguration(version);
```
*version* is a `String`

or
```
MUCLightRoomConfiguration configuration = multiUserChatLight.getConfiguration();
```

```
  // Get room name
  String roomName = configuration.getRoomName();

  // Get subject
  String subject = configuration.getSubject();

  // Get custom configurations
  HashMap<String, String> customConfigs = configuration.getCustomConfigs();
```

**Get affiliations**

```
HashMap<Jid, MUCLightAffiliation> affiliations = multiUserChatLight.getAffiliations(version);
```
*version* is a `String`

or
```
HashMap<Jid, MUCLightAffiliation> affiliations = multiUserChatLight.getAffiliations();
```

**Get full information**

```
MUCLightRoomInfo info = multiUserChatLight.getFullInfo(version);
```
*version* is a `String`

or
```

MUCLightRoomConfiguration configuration = info.getConfiguration();

// Get occupants
HashMap<Jid, MUCLightAffiliation> occupants = info.getOccupants();
```


Manage room occupants
---------------------

To change room occupants:
```
multiUserChatLight.changeAffiliations(affiliations);
```
*affiliations* is a `HashMap<Jid, MUCLightAffiliation>`


Manage occupants modifications
------------------------------

```
// check if the message is because of an affiliations change
if (message.hasExtension(MUCLightElements.AffiliationsChangeExtension.ELEMENT, MUCLightElements.AffiliationsChangeExtension.NAMESPACE)) {
  
  // Get the affiliations change extension
  MUCLightElements.AffiliationsChangeExtension affiliationsChangeExtension = MUCLightElements.AffiliationsChangeExtension.from(message);

  // Get the new affiliations
  HashMap<EntityJid, MUCLightAffiliation> affiliations = affiliationsChangeExtension.getAffiliations();
