Which URL are you sending the XML to and why do you need to send this login request?

There are two XML interfaces that Aware IM exposes - the old and the new one. Programmer's Reference Guide describes the old one and it looks like you are sending the request to the new one.

Hi,

I am sending URL 'webif.awr'

and i am working on some custom programming on awareIM and Flex so it requires to login.

I am using the Interface provided with the programming reference guide.

if in new version there is a change, it would be great if you can send me the new. so i can test it down.

and will sure going to show my work if what we are looking from the awareIM application do.

Thanks

The URL you are sending it to is wrong. I don't know where you picked it up.

You should use the URL mentioned in the Programmer's Guide.

i tried with the given URL specified in programmer reference guide too 'xml.awr' but getting the same result nothing different

The URL specified in the Programmer's Reference is xml.do, not xml.awr!!!!

Hi Support,

here what is in programmer guide.

Note: The latest version 4.0 of Aware IM uses the AJAX technology and the EXT 2.0 library to
build its default out-of-the-box user interface. This version makes use of an updated XML
interface. Application developers can use the new version of the XML interface to create their
own custom front ends. The DTD file describing the new interface is available at
http://www.awareim.com/dtd/web_interface.dtd. The URL to use for the new interface is
http://serverName:8080/AwareIM/xml.awr

so i tried this...

but now it works...thanks support and gert..<root> is also the problem.

sometime easy things go such hard..

now it works and i got in return session id too.
and it is showing the same issue which gert has put into forum..regarding session id...

Code: Select all

<login_action_return>

<session_id>CC0D9E913BEC2DFD1EA4C52FFB035A56</session_id>

</login_action_return>

The new interface is not documented, so use with care!

If you are and experienced AJAX and Javascript programmer take a look at the file AwareIM/Tomcat/webapps/AwareIM/aware_ext.js. This file contains ALL the code that implements Aware IM UI and communicates with the Aware IM server via AJAX and the new interface. If you can figure out how this works (and you should if you have enough experience in this area), then only sky is the limit - you can create your own UI to Aware IM.

As for the &lt and &gt problem - we'll have a look at it (this seems to be a problem of the old interface)

Hi support,

Need to know that is the interface described in the document is totally change or a bit,

and when supposed shall we have the updated xml interface in our documentation..

aware_support · Post by **aware_support** » Sun Aug 02, 2009 11:16 pm

The interface has been changed quite a lot. Don't know when this is going to be fully documented but the DTD file is available in http://www.awareim.com/web_interface.dtd

And like I said the example is in aware.js (now aware_full.js)
