Let Server Assign Resource

Smack Smack Dev

In my Smack XMPPConnection, when I log in, I would like the server to assign a resource for me. I don’t want to supply my own or use the default value of “Smack”. Is there a way to do this in Smack? My server definitely supports it and it’s in the spec http://xmpp.org/rfcs/rfc6120.html#bind-servergen

thanks,

Dan

I don’t think it’s possible. I’ve tried it, too, once and ended up living with fix resources or generate random UUIDs on the client.

I have not tested this, but, although it’s not documented, it appears that if you specify ‘null’ as resource, the one gernated by the server is used.

Indeed, that works. thanks
