It is based on Qt. +QXmpp is a cross-platform C++ XMPP client and server library. It is written +in C++ and uses the Qt framework. + +QXmpp strives to be as easy to use as possible, the underlying TCP socket, +the core XMPP RFCs (RFC3920 and RFC3921) and XMPP extensions have been +encapsulated into classes and functions. QXmpp comes with full API +documentation, automatic tests and numerous examples. + +QXmpp uses Qt extensively, and as such users need to a have working knowledge +of C++ and Qt basics (Signals and Slots and Qt data types). + +Qt is the only third party library which is required to build QXmpp, but +libraries such as speex and theora enable additional features. QXmpp is released under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License, version 2.1 or later. -- cgit v1.2.3
