Channel

The shortened channel name.

This is the channel name without the type identifier prefix, e.g. "my-channel". It therefore does not expose channel type information, which can be inspected using type.

The full channel name.

This is the channel name including the type identifier prefix, e.g. "private-my-channel". It is inferred from the name and the type.

The channel type.

Creates a Channel based on a full name (including type prefix).

The channel type is inferred based on the provided fullName. e.g. A fullName of "private-my-channel" results in a channel whose name is "my-channel" and a type of private.

If a shortened name is accidentally used, this results in a channel of type public since no type prefix was provided.

Creates a Channel based on a shortened name and a channel type.

If a full name is accidentally used, this results in a channel whose type is determined by the type parameter, regardless of any type prefix that is present in the name string.
