Subject: How to group the roster list?

hi~
In order to group my roster list, I have read the document and have found an method item.AddGroup when the client get OnRosterItem event. But I couldn't understand how to use it. I have tried to add one but it wasn't saved in server. :red:

thank you~

you have to send the updated rosterItem with a RosterIq to to the server.

RosterIq riq = new RosterIq();
riq.Type = IqType.set;

RosterItem ri = new RosterItem();
ri.Jid = new Jid("test@server");
ri.Name = "Nickname";
ri.AddGroup("Work");

riq.Query.AddRosterItem(ri);

m_XMPP.Send(riq);

or use the UpdateRosterItem in the RosterManager class where you can do this with one line of code.

hi,

the library doent manage this.
You have to handle yourself how many groups you have and how many items belong to each group.
You can do this with a Hashtable or smth similar. Or with the Treeview that draws your roster, or a custum roster control.
