XMPP Stream difference between smack 4.1.0 and 4.0.3

Hello,

I’m trying to update my smack client from 4.0.3 to 4.1.0, however I’m seeing some difference in the XMPP stream when trying to re-authenticate (i.e. login again without disconnecting the subscriber):

The older version of smack has this stream (I’ve bolded the difference with the new stream):

  • Accepted connection server:port -> xmpp_server:5222
  • Received XML on stream = <<"<stream:stream to=“server” xmlns=“jabber:client” xmlns:stream=“http://etherx.jabber.org/streams” version=“1.0”>">>

Does anyone know why I’m getting this difference? Are there any parameters I can set so that I get the same flow as before when re-authenticating the subscriber? Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Since when had Smack 4.0 support for Stream Management? Are you running a modified version of Smack 4.0?

The trace is also incomplete, e.g. there is no ‘proceed’ to ‘starttls’. And, it’s terrible to read and comprehend since angle brackets are used together with a quote sign (<<") to quote the XML. If you would just write

RECV: <message …>

SEND: <iq …>

it would be far easier to follow.

Also please describe the difference in simple english, as I’m unable to read anything like that out of the XMPP trace.

Hi Flow,

My apologies for the formatting, I’ve fixed it up a bit.

Yes, I was running a modified version of smack which had stream management implemented separately, I don’t know the details of it as I wasn’t the one who implemented it. I’m just posting here in case you’d know how to achieve the same stream with smack 4.1.0 since it nows supports stream management.

I’ve bolded the actual difference in the flow itself now so that it should be easier to see. In the new smack we get a stream replaced error.

For the missing bits I’m not sure yet, I will try to get the complete logs and respond here.
