[ecf-dev] Re: ecf-dev Digest, Vol 36, Issue 14

Ok,
I will file the bugs. For the Yahoo "Add to Friend", I take it back, it was an error on my side, it is working. But the messages sent to Yahoo are still being dropped randomly at times, I am not sure if it is something ECF can fix though...

Scott,
Hi, as of today, I am having problems with the ECF Yahoo plugin and also
with the ECF MSN plugin. For the Yahoo plugin, messages sent are being
dropped erratically, and Yahoo Add to Friend api via the IRoster does not
work. For the MSN plugin, it does not even connect. I suspect it is due to
continual changes in the messaging protocols, and that the underlying Java
api has bugs and not maintained well.
One hope I see is the libpurple library that is used by a lot of popular
companies (such as Meebo) to integrate the different messengers. It even
support Bonjour and is kept up to date.
The only downside is that it is written in C, so is there any easy way to
have a JNI layer to interface ECF with libpurple, that way, the instant
messaging is always kept up to date...

Regards,
Dicky Johan

Please file two separate bugs for the Yahoo! and MSN issues.
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=ECF

I have heard another user note that connecting to MSN doesn't work at
all but have otherwise not received any connectivity complaints about
the MSN provider.

I think there may be issues with this due to libpurple being under the
GPL. I guess this might fly if it was hosted on ECF's server at
OSUOSL, but I'm not positive.
