Hi guys,

I am trying to build IM client using;

-Eclipse IDE
-Smack API(with smack.jar files)
-Openfire(as the server)

I would like an advice on how to build this client using eclipse and am finding difficult on how to build a simple program that sends message from one client to another one using the server.

I would appriciate if anyone could help with this.

Thanks in advance,

Ireland

ECF uses the smack API (v 3.1) to implement our abstract presence API.
There is example code for creating a basic chat client that uses the
presence API (and smack provider) here:

org.eclipse.ecf.example.clients.applications.ChatRobotApplic ation

This class is in this project: org.eclipse.ecf.example.clients

See also the class:

org.eclipse.ecf.example.clients.XMPPChatClient

in that same project (XMPPChatClient is used by the ChatRobotApplication):

See below for the info about CVS access to this example code.

If you have other questions about this example and/or the presence API I
would suggest posting these questions to the ecf-dev mailing list, as it
is monitored more closely than this newsgroup by ECF committers (myself
as well as others). There is information and archive for the ecf-dev
mailing list here: https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/ecf-dev

Thanks,

Scott
