**class** ListComponent: SBUGroupChannelModule.List {

**override**  **func** setupViews() {

**super**.setupViews()

**self**.emptyView = EmptyView()

**self**.emptyView?.isHidden = **true**

}

}

class EmptyView: SBUEmptyView {  
override func setupViews() {  
super.setupViews()  
self.statusLabel.text = “no”  
self.statusLabel.isHidden = true  
}

```
override func updateViews() {
    super.updateViews()
    self.statusLabel.text = "no"
}

```

}

```
func lanuchChatScreenInSDK() {
    self.stopActivityAnimation()
    let (leftButton, rightButton) = self.createButtons()
    let mainVC = SBUGroupChannelListViewController()
    mainVC.headerComponent?.leftBarButton = leftButton
    mainVC.headerComponent?.rightBarButton = rightButton
    SBUModuleSet.groupChannelModule.inputComponent = InputComponent()
    SBUModuleSet.groupChannelModule.headerComponent = HeaderComponent()
    SBUModuleSet.groupChannelModule.listComponent? = ListComponent()
    mainVC.headerComponent?.titleView = SendBirdNavigationView()
    self.navigationController?.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
    UIApplication.topViewController()?.navigationController?.pushViewController(mainVC, animated: true)
}

```
