[cl-xmpp-devel] All calls return connection object

[Adam Thorsen]

Erik, this is the code I use to initialize the connection, as is
suggested on common-lisp.net:

(require :cl-xmpp)

(defvar connection (xmpp:connect :hostname "jabber.loglibrary.com"))

;; initiate XML stream with server
(xmpp:begin-xml-stream connection)

;; authenticate (or use xmpp:register to make an account)
 (xmpp:auth connection "test" "whatever" "server")

;; let the server know you want to receive/send presence information
;; (this makes you "come online" if others have a subscription with
you
 (xmpp:presence connection)

I then execute this on the SLIME REPL:

CL-USER> (xmpp:message connection "awt at jabber.loglibrary.com" "what's
going on?")

However, I am still not recieving messages from test at jabber.loglibrary.com.

Is there some way I can find out what's happening?  Where the message
is getting lost or not transmitted?  Is there a simpler test I can
perform?

I swtiched (from the first email I sent) from SBCL 9.5 on OSX to SBCL
9.5 on Gentoo/x86 because I thought it might be a threading issue, but
no luck.

Thanks,
-Adam
