wodXMPP

- Version 1.4.3

Basic information about wodXMPP
You can use wodXMPP as instant messaging and presence
protocol - you can see your contacts online, send and
receive messages with them, send and receive
notifications, etc.

There are two variations of wodXMPP -
1. COM Object which is invisible and should be used
"under the hood" in your applications
2. OCX Control which has GUI (as seen on the right side
of this page). Each contact is drawn by wodXMPP itself
so you don't need to create your own code to show
contacts on the screen. No code is required to have
visible contact list on the screen.

Interface definition
Main wodXMPP object is responsible for you as an entity
on the Jabber network. You can find here methods to
connect and disconnect, to set your JID, password, etc..

Your buddies are called 'Contacts' and are provided
through XMPPContact object. Here you can add them to
your contact list, send authorization requests, send
messages... Messages are created in separate
XMPPMessage objects where you can set up all details of
messages.

There are dozen of objects in wodXMPP component that
parse incoming data to separate standalone entities
which you can easily use and manipulate in your code.

Sending and receiving messages
It is easy to send message with wodXMPP - you can do it
from one line using SendText method. If you need to
construct more complicated messages, you can initialize
included XMPPMessage object, supply few properties, and
then call SendMessage method to deliver it to your contact.

Connecting to other protocols
wodXMPP supports (if your server provides it)
connecting to other instant messaging protocols - such
as ICQ, MSN, AIM, Yahoo, GTalk etc..

SSL Security
You can feel safe with wodXMPP - no one will see
messages you send because wodXMPP uses SSL. Both
Explicit and Implicit modes are provided, so you can
connect to regular port 5222 and then "fire up armor",
or you can connect to port 443 to services that have
SSL enabled.
