Why not just use the presence packets to detect the nickname?

I already found the place where i can stop the nickname form being set, but as you say is not too compatible, i was wondering if there were a standard way of doing this or if some CVS update has it done. Thanks --- I can't think of a very neat way of doing that. You could indeed modify the source so that the nickname isn't set, and then add a custom IQ handler to get/set it. Not very compatible though. Why do you need to retrieve the user's current nickname? --- James On 23/08/2005, at 12:53 AM, Carlos Guzman wrote: > Hello > ? > Im developing a text only client for Jabber and using PyMSNt transfor > for connection to MSN, it works just fine but i wuld like to keep the > original MSN nickname of the users, what i intend to do is: > ? > - Connect to MSN unsing PyMSNt keeping the original nickname > - Obtain this nickaname form jabber (i haven been able to get my own > vcard form the client) > - In case the user wants to, change the nickname informing what was > the original one > ? > is this posible?, if so, how can it be done (maybe changing the > transport source) > ? > Thanks in advance > ? > Carlos Guzman > ?_______________________________________________ > py-transports mailing list > py-transports@blathersource.org > http://www.modevia.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/py-transports _______________________________________________ py-transports mailing list py-transports@blathersource.org http://www.modevia.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/py-transports
