Newbie wondering how to use emite

[Daryl Herzmann]

Hello Emite Group,

I've been following along and am excited about this project, but am
not sure how to accomplish a simple task of putting this tool on my
website to have it communicate back against my jabber server. I'd
envision having a zip/tar file that I can simply extract to a folder,
modify a config file, and be up and running. It is not clear that is
possible at this time without getting up to speed on eclipse, GWT, and
all sorts of other fun java stuff :) Unfortunately, my java and
eclipse foo is very weak :(

Is this type of functionality an eventual goal of this project or am I
missing something?

thank you,
daryl

PS. Will xhtml (XEP 0071) be supported as well?

I am a new committer, so please go easy on me :-)

Emite is essentially a library. The full featured UI are EmiteUI
(there should be a download somewhere, but I cannot find it) and
Hablar.
Hablar is under heavy development and it is currently available only
under Subversion:
http://emite.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/hablar

Anyway the reason that I chose Emite/Hablar instead of various others
(iJab, SparkWeb, Tigase) is because it is well written, "real" open
source (e.g. iJab has no source about the new version under
Subversion...) and has a very responsive team.
After a few hacks, the application worked normally.

HTH

Hello:

This type of functionallity is a eventual goal of this project: currently you can compile the gwt code to javascript and use it inside your web page without need of gwt programming (using html meta tags for configuration). We will provide a "compiled to javascript binary" soon... when Hablar is a little bit more mature...

 

thank you,
 daryl

PS.  Will xhtml (XEP 0071) be supported as well?

We don't have plans for that xep...

Cheers,

Dani

Greetings,

Was curious how things were progressing toward this goal?
Unfortunately, building myself appears too great a task for me, sorry
:(

thank you,

Hello Daryl:

We are moving to this goal, but not ready... I expect to deliver a js
binary in one or two months :(
Bests,
Dani
