Hello!

Anybody knows of a component/class set implementing a text chat system?

I am looking to avoid reinventing the wheel if possible.

Simple systems are fine, but of course the more features the better :)

I doubt there's anything free, but how about low cost?

Anybody knows anything?

Thanks!

A

    Need more requirements ;)
    Authentication / encryption / point to point or star / groups?

    I've made one a few years ago with Delphi 7, if you add the socket components, it still works under Berlin :)

    Authentication, server-based, with groups (=rooms) is the minimal.
    Encryption, P2P ability, etc. would be better :)

    Real Thin Client (not free) have extensive support and demos. And it does not touch WebSockets at all.

    I am rather looking for something specific. I could probably set up a chat system in a relatively short time using RO (that I own) but I am more looking for something focused.

    I was with the same question just different result, I had to choose between WebSockets and XMPP. XMPP as it turns out is a XML based system, and Websockets are JSON, I use websockets in a algorithmic trading system that only will have ever up to 3 clients, so I don't know if Websockets is better for /you/, but for me Websockets was much simpler to implement!
