Re: GNU Classpath and the XMPP Smack API

[Jan Pannecoeck <jpa@mgb-tech.com>]

Hi,

Thansk for the reply, I've tried OpenJDK and Cacao before, but that was 
a little bit to adventures for me... :-) Maybe I'll try again later, if 
there really isn't a solution to get Smack working with GNU Classpath. 
So I'll wait a few days to see if someone here knows some solution ... I 
hope someone does! :-)
