[jdev] Re: HELP!!! Component devolopment for jabber

[ahmet sevki]

Jim, these are all ways to write components for 1.4 server. Is there any 
  sample code which implements a component for jabber2?

I've been searching for the past 2 weeks. I am looking for a decent 
example where a component written for 1.4 is run using jabber 1.4, and 
it successfully connects to a jabber2 server and echoes messages. I 
tried jso, jso etc. I keep getting problems such as "Circular reference 
detected". I think it is because I am trying to run both the component 
and the jabber2 server on the same "localhost"

for instance:
I tried to run jso framework's echo component.
I created a jso.xml file to run it with jabber 1.4 server:

jso.xml :
==========
      <jabber>

           <service id="jsolinker">
             <uplink/>
             <connect>
               <ip>127.0.0.1</ip> <!-- IP Address of Router here -->
               <port>5347</port>
               <secret>secret</secret>
             </connect>
           </service>

           <service id="jso.localhost">
              <accept>
                <ip/>
                <port>1213</port>
                <secret>secret</secret>
              </accept>
              <jso xmlns="jabber:client"/>

           </service>

           <log id="jsolog">
             <file>/home/.../logs/jso.log</file>
             <host/>
             <logtype/>
             <format>%d: [%t] (%h): %s</format>
           </log>

           <xdb id="xdb">
             <host>localhost</host>
             <load>

<xdb_file>/home/.../jabberd-1.4.3/xdb_file/xdb_file.so</xdb_file>
             </load>

             <xdb_file xmlns="jabber:config:xdb_file">
               <spool>/home/.../jabberd-1.4.3/spool</spool>
             </xdb_file>
           </xdb>

         </jabber>

==========================================================


in my router.xml file I have aliased as:
     <alias name='jso.localhost' target='jsolinker'/>

in my sm.xml file, I added :

     <item category='service' type='jso' jid='jso.localhost' name='JSO 
Test'/>
since echo component does not support discover.


I started jabber2, and then
and then ran jabber1.4 server:
jabberd jso.xml

=========================================

apparently something is going wrong here. Of course then I try to 
connect with my EchoComponent to port 1213, however it -naturally- 
doen't receive anything...
