Hello Everyone,

Just signed up for an Ekiga account and downloaded the softphone.
Mostly, I use it for SIP but today I got a text message from another
user who was using the Pidgin client to connect to the network. For
some reason, his entire message was wrapped in XML. The text was there
but I could see the entire XML message in my chat window.

Is this a configuration error on my end? A problem with Pidgin? What
can I do to fix this?

Hi Anthony,

Is it anything similar to this?

I get this when a user text chats me from SIP Communicator 1.0 alpha
6 on Mac OS X, to Ekiga 3.2.7 on OpenIndiana.


Anthony - not sure if you are indeed seeing the same thing as me, but I
have made an enquiry on the SIP Communicator users list, and received
this response:

"That is is-composing payload, it signals to the client that the remote
party is typing a message, Ekiga should check for this payload type and
render some visual indication for this instead of displaying this
verbatim as a text message."


Ekiga devs, could it be that Ekiga does not handle is-composing payload
at all, while SIP Communicator and Pidgin do?

Ekiga does not have such feature. Please make a bug report and attach the image. I think it is simple (feasible, does not need high programming skills) to program it, but it can take a bit of time.

But I am not quite fond about it. Injecting small packets in the network only to tell the other person that you are writing means network usage for not much information...
