Retrieving generated id from Anonymous

Smack Smack Dev
1

according to the online documentation -> http://www.igniterealtime.org/builds/smack/docs/latest/javadoc/index.html?overvi ew-summary.html -> for anonymous login the server is supposed to generate some guid. Does anyone know of a way to get that guid so I can use it to connect to a real user that’s logged on to the box?

Basically, I’m trying to connect a random joe (anonymous) guy to some agent that’s logged in and ready to take chat requests. I figure since the user is just coming to your site and just needs help that he wouldn’t have a username/password setup.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Incidentally, I was doing just that today.

XMPPConnection conn = new XMPPConnection(“anonymous.jappix.com”);

conn.connect();

conn.loginAnonymously();

String id = conn.getConnectionID();

String user = conn.getUser(); // JID of the anonymous user.

That works perfectly… Thanks!

in anonymous connections

know if the resource that generates random openfire can use it for other users in the future?

thanks
