Smack is a free and open-source software library used for instant messaging and presence. It is compatible with the XMPP or Jabber protocol and provides users with a reliable client for efficient communication.
But what's new with Smack? The latest release includes several new features and bug fixes. Some of the key new features include support for multiple message bodies and message body languages (SMACK-99), and implementation of GSSAPI for single-sign on (SMACK-218).
On the bug fix front, there are two notable updates. Firstly, the getPresence method was not working correctly with offline presence (SMACK-219). This has now been resolved. Secondly, SASL authentication was using the XMPP domain instead of the FQDN (SMACK-224), which has also been fixed.
Overall, Smack is a powerful XMPP client library that is well worth considering for your next project. With excellent capabilities and new features being added regularly, it's a great choice for any developer looking to create custom instant messaging and presence solutions.
