Flash doesn't like XML streams and XMPP is streaming XML. A Google search for "Flash+Jabber" or "Flash+XMPP" will probably yield some workarounds...

Hey All,

Peter Fisk (Cc'd) has developed direct support for XMPP into Vista Smalltalk, a .NET and now Flash-based implementation of Smalltalk and Lisp. It seems he's run into some problems, however, with getting XMPP to work in the Flash-based version (see: http://vistascript.net/vistascript/flex/vst.swf for a working demo and visit http://vistasmalltalk.wordpress.com/ <http://vistasmalltalk.wordpress.com/> for a running list of entries that provide various demo's to help get you started)

In follow-up to a question I posed to Peter in a recent blog entry,

    David,
    On opening a socket connection to any Jabber server, I can catch the
    "connection established" event after which it seems to hang. There
    is no problem connecting from Flash to http servers and I can
    connect to Jabber using Exodus with no problem. I added a
    "crossdomain.xml" file to the same directory as the *.swf file:

    Any thoughts?


I personally don't have enough experience with Flash to be able to know the answer (or at least the possible answer) to the problem. Am digging around a bit to see what I might be able to come up with (I doubt much I need to express to this list how cool it would be to have this capability built into a Smalltalk/Lisp interpreter for Flash! ;-)), but it seemed worth posting this to the dev-list to see if anyone else out there might be able to lead and guide me, and ultimately, Peter, to the solution.

Thanks in advance for any and all help/advice!
