Ok I will take a look.
Okay, i've got the IM client and server both working.
Here's the "features" i've implemented so far:
1. Log In/Out
2. Buddy List (although you can't reorder the people in it)
3. User status (eg.: away, busy, online, invisible, etc.)
4. New user (finished, except for 1 really annoying bug)
Here's what I'm planning to do:
1. Allow reordering of buddy list
2. Allow user to group buddy lists into different groups (eg.: Buddies, Friends, etc.)
3. Allow people to send chats to each other (duh!:D)
4. Allow file transfers (might be a bit complicated)
So, here's the questions:
Currently, I'm storing all the user data in text files. Should I switch to using databases?
1. Are the statuses customizable?
2. No file sharing should be implemented.
3. What's the annoying bug? :)
4. Go nuts on the DB if you want but I don't (not sure about others) know jack about DBs.
1. Currently, no. However, it will not be hard to implement such a function.Quote:

2. Okay.
3. It allows you to create new users, but you can also enter name of existing user and change their password. (Read my question concerning INI files in General VB Questions).
4. I don't know much about DB's either, so currently, I'm sticking to INI and text files.:D
You might wanna work on #3. ;)
the number 3 problems is funny ahaha:D
Problems with the client:
The gray text is impossible to read, just use vbButtonText instead of gray.
?????
What grey text?
(#3 is now fixed.:D)
Is that the #3 you were talking about?:DQuote:

I have sent the sourcecode to Andreas. He's currently in the process of debugging it...:)

lol....didn't think about the color schemes!:D
(That ikon in the top-left corner is REALLY messed up! It should be 64x64)
The tray icon is alright though. Remember that Windows XP can use >16-color icons so go nuts with gradients and such if you want. :D
I have the icons in 254 colors.
Look at my question about icon color depths in General VB Questions.
Anyways, I got to go.
See y'all later!:D
I can not log on your program, it load infinitely
1st: I changed something in the IM client:
I added a globally defined constant for the server's IP (it might change...)
2nd: The client runs for me now
I started both client and server on my PC an it worked.
The error must have something to do with your PCs connection to the internet, eiSec...
Filburt, did you get my PM?
*checks* No.
I didnt receive a pm from you to.
Hello?
Anybody still in here?
Yes I am here
EiSecure have the project in his hand and will do a lots of money without us :(
Na! Don't worry!:D
I hear than you have made so much money than Bill Gates think to paid you to work for him now :rolleyes:
One thing:
I think our client proggy should have a better (more colorful) user interface (but it should not look like angry fruit salad)
Redth, could you help me with a nice, shaped form?
Andreas, I've got a little OCX that lets you specify an image, and it'll make your form the shape of the image's non-transparent parts.
Only thing is that it is slow.:(
Good idea!
When the server will be ready ?
VB version is basically ready.
I'm starting to learn Java to write the Java version.:)
java version ? an applet ?
No, a command-line server.
(By the way, Filburt, I need some help on that...is there a Java equivalent of Winsock?)
There are a bunch of Java classes that do Winsock stuff and so much more.
Got a link?:)
Everything in java.net, which is probably several hundred classes. :D http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/index.html
Okay, I'm here: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/ap...verSocket.html
How would I set up a little proggie that listens on a specific port for connections, accepts them, and then exchange "hello" with the client?
Why Turtle do not do that ?
Too lazy right now. :rolleyes: Besides it's a hell of a lot more complicated than Winsock. :(
Eisecure you are new to Java and you want to do that when one of the best Java person in the board said it a very hard, good luck and why do we need that ? We should just release the Im now !!! before 2002 guys!!!Quote:
