Description

// Retrieve the room from its room id
let room = mxSession.room(withRoomId: "!room_id:matrix.org")

// Add a listener on events related to this room
_ = room?.liveTimeline.listenToEvents { (event, direction, roomState) in
switch direction {
case .forwards:
// Live/New events come here
break

case .backwards:
    // Events that occurred in the past will come here when requesting pagination.
    // roomState contains the state of the room just before this event occurred.
    break
}

}

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Swift 5 case using the provided room(withRoomId:) and liveTimeline.listenToEvents entry points. Check why the room's messages are not delivered in the event listener, then verify that both live and paginated events arrive as expected.
