The following Silverlight groupchat example is included in the Silverlight download.
The API is exactly the same for the full .NET version.

this is correct. The To attribute is the Jid of the chatroom.

Subject: good! but.
Thank you! alex!

my source code :

public ChatForm(XmppClient xmppClient, Jid jid, string nickName, Login login)
        {
            this._XmppClient = xmppClient;
            this._Jid = jid;
            this._NickName = nickName;
            this._Login = login;
            this.CommitInComingMessage = false;

            InitializeComponent();

            // source code add. 2 line
            this._MucManager = new MucManager(_XmppClient);
            _MucManager.EnterRoom(_Jid, _NickName, true);


            // MessageFilter
            Util.ChatForms.Add(_Jid.Bare.ToLower(), this);
            xmppClient.MessageFilter.Add(jid, new BareJidComparer(), OnMessage); << this source code remove?

            currentFont = rtfChat.SelectionFont;


            // file trans ..
            fm.XmppClient = _XmppClient;
            fm.OnFile += fm_OnFile;
            fm.OnError += fm_OnError;
            fm.OnEnd += fm_OnEnd;
            fm.OnStart += fm_OnStart;
            fm.OnProgress += fm_OnProgress;
        }




            Util.ChatForms.Add(_Jid.Bare.ToLower(), this);
            xmppClient.MessageFilter.Add(jid, new BareJidComparer(), OnMessage);    << this source code remove?

sorry, but I don't understand what you are saying.

mucManager.EnterRoom brings a user in an existing room, or creates the room when it does not exist.

You probably want to create a new instant room for your 3 users, then do a:
mucManager.RequestInstantRoom() after you created a new room with EnterRoom.

Then the other 2 users can join the room after its ready.

Hi Alex!

I also want to do this, to basically use the very basic example that you have on your asgXMPP homepage, but instead of sending the message to a singleton, instead send it to a chatroom/chatgroup.

It sounds like I need to login to the xmpp server, then OnLogin, create a mucManager then EnterRoom or RequestInstantRoom()

Question: what is the difference between EnterRoom(when the room doesn't exists), and RequestInstantRoom()?

for agsXMPP please look at the MiniClient example, it has also group chat functionality.

Thanks Alex!

Got a question for you when you have the time.
I now know how to manage a connection to a server to maintain connections with the different connection states and things.
Is there anything like that for a muc?
There is OnPresence for detecting when you're successfully connected to a room, but what about when you're rejected/banned/timed out/room doesn't exist?
Do these cases trigger one of the error triggers?

Any help is much appreciated!

you get all this info in OnPresence. Eg. when you get banned then you and all other occupats get a presence which looks like the following:

  1. <presence
  2.    from='harfleur@henryv.shakespeare.lit/pistol'
  3.    to='pistol@shakespeare.lit/harfleur'
  4.    type='unavailable'>
  5.  <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'>
  6.     <item affiliation='none' role='none'>
  7.       <actor jid='fluellen@shakespeare.lit'/>
  8.       <reason>Avaunt, you cullion!</reason>
  9.     </item>
  10.     <status code='307'/>
  11.  </x>
  12. </presence>

I suggest to check the status code of the presence packet. The current status codes are described here:
