Hi all, I need to evaluate Gtalk as p2p communication protocol for future development. I read the documentation and did some basic GTalk applications
From the info I collected I have the following questions: 1. Every GTalk application shall need a valid gmail account to be able to communicate with other applications. Is this right? 2. Every GTalk application shall send text data with IChatSession.sendTextMessage() or generic data in the form of Intents with IChatSession.sendDataMessage() or IGTalkSession.sendDataMessage() . What is the difference (if any) between the two ways? 3. Data sent with IChatSession.sendDataMessage() or IGTalkSession.sendDataMessage() shall be retrieved defining an IntentReceiver as broadcast intent. Is that the only way to do it? If so, I'm not able to retrieve info as the sender identity... do I need to manage this on my own, or there's a way to retrieve some more data when receiving the intent? 4. Is the Android GTalk implementation the same of the GTalk client or not? Moreover, could you provide some reference about the protocol used by android to send data? 5. Is it possible to make test with GTalk API without contacting the google server? I mean, is there a way I could install a gTalk server in my LAN and override the default GTalk API behavior to use it instead of Google's? That's pretty all, Thanks a lot for your answers!
