Addition of MSRP protocol support in SailFin CAFE

MSRP protocol support has been recently added to SailFin CAFE. This feature is available in the latest sailfin-cafe downloads.

With the MSRP protocol it is now possible to do the following using SailFin CAFE:

• Session mode instant messaging
• Large file transfers.

(more to come in the forthcoming builds)

SailFin CAFE added two new APIs to support MSRP, which are:

• org.glassfish.cafe.api.MSRPConversation
• org.glassfish.cafe.api.MSRPConference

This blog covers how the large file can be tranferred across the attendees when you are in a voice conference. Instead of the plain text, I have created a screencast which covers all the details. Please click here to watch the SCREENCAST (around 30 seconds, sized ~4 MB)

To try it yourself : 

• Install SailFin v2 FCS build and install the latest sailfin-cafe on top of it
• Deploy quality-msrptests-test1-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war and follow the screencast to run it.

The deployed quality-msrptests-test1-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war has 2 CAFE communication beans in it. One bean handles the voice conference and the other one handles the msrp.

Wrt screencast, here is the brief description of the beans (quality-msrptests-test1-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war file has the complete source code):
