Re: [jdev] Talk To Jabber Server Using Sockets
Maybe consider using a different language than C++ I understand this is no option, looking at the other posts you sent. In that case, I suggest you take a tutorial on setting up and using Microsoft Visual C++, maybe read some books on the topic. That, or switch to Linux, where 'gcc' and 'make' work out of the box. cheers, Remko ___ JDev mailing list FAQ: http://www.jabber.org/discussion-lists/jdev-faq Forum: http://www.jabberforum.org/forumdisplay.php?f=20 Info: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___

Huh? For me, it was the other way around. Windows buildsystems chased me to crosscompiling win32 binaries (like GTK for Win32, which we need for Gajim on Win32) on Linux, as even cross compiling is far more easier than setting up a build environment on Windows.

Re: [jdev] Talk To Jabber Server Using Sockets
Unlike the world of unix/ linux if one clicks on an installer in windows everything works. Which clearly shows by the amount of hours you lost so far in trying to get something compiling on Windows which works out of the box on Unix-based platforms. I am thinking of writing a quick xmpp client myself ... Given the type of questions you have, I would strongly encourage trying out an existing library first to get some basic understanding of networking and XMPP in general. Maybe consider using a different language than C++, one that is easier to get working on Windows (which is a hard platform to do C++-based development on, especially when using external libraries) cheers, Remko ___ JDev mailing list FAQ: http://www.jabber.org/discussion-lists/jdev-faq Forum: http://www.jabberforum.org/forumdisplay.php?f=20 Info: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___

This is certainly sounds like an aggressive complaint. You came here for help and while there are people that are trying to help you are making claims like that. Don't you feel ashamed of this?

[jdev] How to do SASL authentication in C/C++
I have started to write socket level code for interaction with a jabber server like gtalk. I am sending this thing xml strings but in the authentication phase it requires SASL encryption. Is there an expeditious way of encrypting authentication code? -- ashiraz ashiraz's Profile: http://www.jabberforum.org/member.php?userid=17305 View this thread: http://www.jabberforum.org/showthread.php?t=1061 ___ JDev mailing list FAQ: http://www.jabber.org/discussion-lists/jdev-faq Forum: http://www.jabberforum.org/forumdisplay.php?f=20 Info: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___

It's common to use libraries for SASL, but we've already had a discussion about libraries. That said, it's also very common to not use libraries for SASL. Lots of people write their own code for one reason or another. You need to decide what mechanisms to implement. Probably you'd do PLAIN and/or DIGEST-MD5. Consult the RFCs. You should only do PLAIN if you plan to protect the stream with TLS. Long ago, somebody wrote the smallest tutorial ever for DIGEST-MD5, and it's even written in the context of XMPP: http://web.archive.org/web/20050224191820/http://cataclysm.cx/wip/digest-md5-crash.html -Justin ___ JDev mailing list FAQ: http://www.jabber.org/discussion-lists/jdev-faq Forum: http://www.jabberforum.org/forumdisplay.php?f=20 Info: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___
