|
<b>Description</b><p>
|
|
|
|
Entity Capabilities is a XMPP Protocol extension, which, in order to minimize network impact, caches the capabilities of XMPP entities. Those capabilities are determined with the help of the Service Discovery Protocol (<a href="http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0030.html">XEP-0030</a>).
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<b>Usage</b><p>
|
|
|
|
Entity Capabilities work silenty in background when enabled. If the remote XMPP entity does not support XEP-0115 but XEP-0030 then XEP-0030 mechanisms are transparently used. You can enable or disable Entity Capabilities by using <i><b>EntityCapsManager</b></i>.<br>
|
|
|
|
The cache used by Smack for Entity Capabilities is non-persistent as default. That is, the cache only uses memory. But it is also possible to set a persistent Entity Capabilities cache, which is recommended.

|
|
|
|
<font color="#3f7f5f">// Create an cache, see smackx.entitycaps.cache for pre-defined cache implementations</font>
