Solution 1

Finally I got the Concrete implementation

Anyone who want to develop chat client then follow the steps mentioned below.

Go to link

http://www.beem-project.com/projects/beem/files

Download

asmack-android-7-source-beem.zip

Now modify this source as per your requirement.

You will find the lib asmack-android-7-beem.jar to obtain javadoc for this lib its same as javadoc for smack what i did is as follows.

Download source smack-3.2.1 from link below

http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloads/index.jsp

When you extract the jar you will get the folder named javadoc now just attach this folder to asmack-android-7-beem.jar by going to the properties of your project.

Hip Hip Hurray....

Solution 2

Smack doesn't work on android out of the box, you may want to use aSmack (http://code.google.com/p/asmack/) which is a port of smack for Android.

Solution 3

You can't use vanilla Smack prior Smack 4 on Android. Have a look at "Android and XMPP: Currently available solutions"
