Bopup IM Client SDK

Bopup IM Client SDK is a software package that provides you with the components you need to develop applications that allow users to send and receive instant messages. It can be used to enhance existing programs or create new ones, and includes documentation, samples and COM components.

It is important to note that applications created with the help of this development kit communicate with a Bopup Communication Server, which needs to be installed as a server-side component of the messaging system.

Bopup IM Client SDK allows you to create programs that can connect to or establish IM sessions, send and receive personal or group messages, receive tasks from the server or status updates from other users and offer contact management functions.

The development kit supports multiple authentication methods for authorizing users. You can choose between simple or Windows Authentication (SSPI), as well as rely on login credentials provided by each end-user.

Transmitted messages are protected using encryption methods based on the Diffie-Hellman key exchange and CAST-128 algorithms, with the aim of providing a secure communication platform for corporate environments.

It is possible to implement this instant messaging functionality using several programming languages and platforms, including C/C++ and Microsoft Visual Basic .NET/C# frameworks. The library includes an interface for VBA, enabling you to create macros for various Microsoft Office applications.

The downloadable package includes an extensive user manual, which provides you with installation instructions and explains how the bundled components can be used to implement chat functions into your applications.
