Recently i have configured the ejabberd server and i have build a xmpp client using a c++ api. Now i want to exchange some custom messages between client to client passing through the server having some custom format as follows.
<client-details from="source@company-xyz.com" to="destination@company-xyz.com">
<name></name>
<feature-id>2</feature-id>
<feature-set>
<feature id=1>FileTransfer</feature>
<feature id=2>FileSharing</feature>
</feature-set>
</client-details>
Can i do this ? How can i do this?
Thanks in advance.
Possible solution; also check Entity Capabilities
I found how to do it in ejabberd, but I didn't check if that's the better way in Jabber/XMPP.
Send information to another user:
<message to='test2@localhost/Tka'
id='1'
type='chat'>
<x xmlns='jabber:x:clientdetails'>
<name></name>
<feature-id>2</feature-id>
<feature-set>
<feature id='1'>FileTransfer</feature>
<feature id='2'>FileSharing</feature>
</feature-set>
</x>
</message>
Broadcast some information to all the contacts:
<presence>
<x xmlns='jabber:x:clientdetails'>
<name></name>
<feature-id>2</feature-id>
<feature-set>
<feature id='1'>FileTransfer</feature>
<feature id='2'>FileSharing</feature>
</feature-set>
</x>
</presence>
Also, checkXEP-0115: Entity Capabilities because maybe it's interesting for you. Clients like Psi 0.11 and Tkabber 0.10 already implement it.
