22_84

can I use a defaultPacketExtension?

thanks

can someone give me a suggestion?

I don’t think so, you will have to use a custom extension to support that particular format as the DefaultPacketExtension will not support attributes.

You could do something more like this with that class.

22_84

52.46

101.38

207.17

271.16

But that gets kind of ugly pretty quickly. For any complex structure you should just create your own extension and provider.

Thankyou rcollier for the answer.

could you do me a small example?

there is little documentation and few examples.

The source code is good documented and there are many live and in-use examples of Extensions and Providers. For example

  • Vcard Provider
  • Vcard Extension

I would also recommend using the EmbeddedExtensionProvider where appropriate as it will make the parsing a little easier.

There are examples of its usage in the pubsub packages, along with the associated extensions.

I set the provider (ProviderManager.getInstance().addExtensionProvider( “mbAction”, “jabber:client”, new MyPEP());), but the response message is not parsed.

where the error might be?

thanks again

Fixed.
