[jdev] Jabber 2.0s8(CVS) win32 build with native service support

[Adam Strzelecki]

Hi,

I'm new to this mailing list however I was playing with IM for a while 
before, especially Miranda IM. Lately I got an idea to put a Jabber 
server at our company. However we run mostly Windows servers & I found 
the commercial windows jabber daemons either expensive or incomplete or 
really space consuming.

So I made myself some code fixes and using Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2 
built jabber 2.0 from CVS with mysql and ssl support.

All services also have win32 native service support. To install service 
run i.e.: "router -I", or "router -U" to uninstall.

You will get "jabberd2router" (Jabber 2 Router) service installed.
By default it is installed for manual run.
All .xml config files will be read from the path the files reside.

You can also run them normally in command line.

For the moment you can find the win32 builds and VC8 projects at:
http://pingu.ii.uj.edu.pl/~ono/jabber/

If you want build jabber2 by yourself unzip 
jabberd-2.0-CVS20050523-vc8.zip (vcbuild) into CVS checkout and apply 
vcbuild/jabberd-2.0CVS-vc8.patch onto it.

You can control specific settings inside vcbuild/include/config.h.

Please post here any remarks on this build.

Question for jabber2 project maintainers: is it possible to apply this 
patch into current jabber2 cvs and put those project inside.. so win32 
version will be available for everybody !?

Cheers to Jabber community & best regards,

P.S. I also plan to make Windows authentication module (patch) to "sm" :)
