<div class="subheader"><a name="disco">Discover HOXT support</a></div><p>
<b>Description</b><p>
Before using this extension you must ensure that your counterpart supports it also.</p>
<b>Usage</b><p>
<p>Once you have your <i><b>ServiceDiscoveryManager</b></i> you will be able to discover information associated with
an XMPP entity. To discover the information of a given XMPP entity send <b>discoverInfo(entityID)</b>
to your <i><b>ServiceDiscoveryManager</b></i> where entityID is the ID of the entity. The message
<b>discoverInfo(entityID)</b> will answer an instance of <i><b>DiscoverInfo</b></i> that contains
the discovered information.</p>
<b>Examples</b><p>
In this example we can see how to check if the counterpart supports HOXT: <br>
<blockquote>
<pre> <font color="#3f7f5f">// Obtain the ServiceDiscoveryManager associated with my XMPPConnection</font>
ServiceDiscoveryManager discoManager = ServiceDiscoveryManager.getInstanceFor(connection);
<font color="#3f7f5f">// Get the information of a given XMPP entity</font>
DiscoverInfo discoInfo = discoManager.discoverInfo("juliet@capulet.com");
<font color="#3f7f5f">// Check if room is HOXT is supported</font>
discoInfo.containsFeature("urn:xmpp:http");
</pre>

<div class="subheader"><a name="iqexchange">IQ exchange</a></div><p>
<b>Description</b><p>
You can use IQ's to perform HTTP requests and responses.
This is applicable to relatively short requests and responses (due to limitation of XMPP message size).</p>
<b>Usage</b><p>
<p>First you need to register a <i><b>PacketListener</b></i> to be able to handle intended IQs.<p>
For the HTTP client you:
<ul>
<li>You create and send <i><b>HttpOverXmppReq</b></i> request.</li>
<li>Then you handle the <i><b>HttpOverXmppResp</b></i> response in your <i><b>PacketListener</b></i>.</li>
</ul>
For the HTTP server you:
<ul>
<li>You handle the <i><b>HttpOverXmppReq</b></i> requests in your <i><b>PacketListener</b></i>.</li>
<li>And create and send <i><b>HttpOverXmppResp</b></i> responses.</li>
</ul>
</p>
<b>Examples</b><p>
In this example we are HTTP client, so we send request (POST) and handle the response: <br>
