[JDEV] Question about jabber:iq:auth packets and XDB

[Joe Breeden]

All,

I have noticed a quirk, if you will, in the way jabberd passes jabber:iq:auth packets to XDB. If you look at the output from my debug log (greatly edited for brevity) it looks like the client is sending a <resource> tag which is getting stripped from the stream when the packet is forwarded to my XDB service. 

My guess is that deliver.c is responsible for rewriting the XML, but I can't figure out where as my C is so poor that I wouldn't begin to claim to understand what the program is doing. I want to be able to store the resources a user is sending like xdb_sql does and it seems to me the perfect time to do this would be when an iq:auth packet is received, except that this handy-dandy piece of information is not being passed to my component. Any help here would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
