Lol, careful about making statements like that on a public mailing list (although I can sympathise, the build scenario on Linux chased me back to Windows). I don't think you will find any C++ libraries that as are 'plug and play' as you want: the C++ side of XMPP is _heavily_ geared toward Linux. I suggest you go for a pure Microsoft-orientated language if you want success with XMPP on Windows (Java is the exception to that rule, I hear the XMPP Java libs work well on Windows), such as C#. Furthermore, C# has only two build tools: MSBuild and NAnt. Both of which are easy to use, seeing as you are Windows-based (and most probably Visual Studio-based) AgsXMPP is your weapon of choice. I think xmppnet uses Nant (which is another download), but I _think_ SharpDevelop supports NAnt out of the box. You could also download the assemblies pre-compiled and not worry about the build process. You can always build a prototype in C# if you are uncomfortable with it in production and move to C++ for the final product (whilst fighting with the build process). Hope this helps you with some pointers. Good luck!
