Please do not be fooled by title. Less then 1/3 of the book covers Jabber programming itself. Most of book is about ... how to configure Jabber client authors developed (actually about 1/3 of book). Language is very primitive. Development environment is VB 6.0. Absolutely useless book.Product Description
Written by the creators of one of the most popular Jabber clients, Jabber Programming enables developers to build messaging applications with the Jabber protocol quickly and easily.
