Smack/XMPP Newbie Question

Smack Smack Dev

Hello Folks

apologies if this has been asked/answered before…I did search but could not find a satisfactory response…so posting this question:

  1. I am a 100% newbie to Smack and XMPP in general and was looking for sample applications to get started. which sample client app would you recommend to learn the foundations without too much complexity? I like to learn from sample codes, as opposed to RTFMs.

  2. Is there any work or interest along creating a .NET version of Smack (perhaps as a wrapper) for the Microsofty crowd?

Thanks,

shashi

Hi shashi,

  1. I am a 100% newbie to Smack and XMPP in general

and was looking for sample applications to get

started. which sample client app would you recommend

to learn the foundations without too much complexity?

I like to learn from sample codes, as opposed to

RTFMs.

Download the Smack source code from url=http://jivesoftware.org/source.jsphere[/url] and look in the test directory for a whole bunch of examples of how to use the API.

  1. Is there any work or interest along creating a

.NET version of Smack (perhaps as a wrapper) for the

Microsofty crowd?

Not from me, but there might be someone else out there who would be interested.

Hope that helps,

Ryan

I would recommend looking at the Soapbox framework if you need a .NET library:
