The Eclipse Communication Framework defines a number of APIs that can be implemented by adopters and add-in providers. The project itself provides implementations of some existing networking protocols. This page is intended to list all known providers, official or third-party, along with some basic information about the provider such as its runtime requirements and licensing.

Call (org.eclipse.ecf.call)

Skype

TODO. See Skype Provider

Discovery (org.eclipse.ecf.discovery)

Zeroconf

TODO. JmDNS is implementation (org.eclipse.ecf.provider.jmdns bundle).

File Transfer (org.eclipse.ecf.filetransfer)

BitTorrent

The BitTorrent protocol is a peer-to-peer protocol that uses the upload speed of the people currently downloading a file so that pieces of the file can be distributed among the various parties as quickly and as efficiently as possible.

Bundle Name: org.eclipse.ecf.provider.bittorrent

License: Eclipse Public License 1.0

Required Bundles:

  • org.eclipse.ecf
  • org.eclipse.ecf.filetransfer
  • org.eclipse.bittorrent
  • org.eclipse.equinox.common

Imported Packages:

  • org.eclipse.osgi.service.datalocation (1.0.0)
  • org.eclipse.osgi.util
  • org.osgi.framework
  • org.osgi.service.url
  • org.osgi.util.tracker

Download: Included with ECF as of 1.0.0M6.

Execution Environment: J2SE-1.4

Original Implementation: Eclipse.org

Notes: None.

Presence (org.eclipse.ecf.presence)

IRC

The IRC protocol is a popular chatting protocol that allows a group of people to discuss about something together as well as one-to-one communication via private messages.

Bundle Name: org.eclipse.ecf.provider.irc

License: Eclipse Public License 1.0, implementation code is under the Apache License 2.0

Required Bundles:

  • org.eclipse.equinox.common
  • org.eclipse.ecf
  • org.eclipse.ecf.presence

Imported Packages:

  • org.eclipse.osgi.util (1.0.0)
  • org.osgi.framework (1.3.0)
  • org.osgi.service.log (1.3.0)
  • org.osgi.util.tracker (1.3.2)

Download: Included with ECF as of 0.9.0

Execution Environment: J2SE-1.4

Original Implementation: IRClib

Notes: None.

MSN

The MSN protocol is the protocol used by Microsoft's Windows Live Messenger instant messaging application.

Bundle Name: org.eclipse.ecf.provider.msn

License: Eclipse Public License 1.0

Required Bundles:

  • org.eclipse.ecf
  • org.eclipse.ecf.presence
  • org.eclipse.equinox.common
  • org.hantsuki.gokigenyou

Imported Packages:

  • org.osgi.framework (1.3.0)

Download: Included with ECF as of 1.0.0M6.

Execution Environment: CDC-1.0/Foundation-1.0 (see Notes)

Original Implementation: Gokigenyou

Notes: While the bundle itself will compile under a CDC-1.0/Foundation-1.0 environment, the library itself will actually not work out of the box as the library needs to make an HTTPS connection. No implementations of the HTTPS protocol is included with the CDC-1.0/Foundation-1.0 runtime environment by default. This library will run in a CDC-1.1/Foundation-1.1 runtime environment provided that the optional security classes has been added to the classpath.

XMPP

XMPP is an open standards protocol that allows for the exchanging of messages and presence information in real-time. Google Talk is an example of an application that uses XMPP.
