about

libicq2000 is an opensource C++ library being developed to support the icq2000/2001 protocol. It is easy for developers to use as the backbone for their clients' connection to the ICQ network - all the protocol work is abstracted away in one nice object-orientated interface.
libicq2000 supports:

  • Message sending/receiving
  • URL sending/receiving
  • SMS sending/receiving, including delivery reports
    (SMTP gateway delivery too)
  • Status changes
  • Authorisation Requests
  • "You were added" messages
  • Fetching user info from server (both basic and advanced)
  • Fetching away messages
  • Setting custom away messages
  • Direct Connections
  • Invisibility, including visible/invisible lists
  • Ignore lists

17th April 2002
It appears a bug in the autoconf that was used to generate the configure scripts has been causing the configure to bail out when testing for gtkmm and sigc++ on some Redhat 7.x and Mandrake systems. A quick fix is to download a replacement configure script from here, save it over the one unpacked from the tarball and rerun configure. If you are using ickle you will need to do the same - go to http://ickle.sourceforge.net/ for a similar fix. A release of the next minor version will fix this in the next few days.

3rd April 2002
