PureBasic Forums - English

I haven't worked on this since March, it's definitely not complete or optimized. That's why I'm calling this version 0.03 BETA.

But anyway, here is a working Windows-only PB4 AIM client (with source), featuring basic IMs, chats (only incoming though, you can't create your own), away messages, tabbed conversations, profiles, etc.

Looking over the unorganized, barely-commented code, there are MANY things I would do differently had I planned them out better, such as managing tabs. But the important part is the working AIM protocol, hopefully someone can make good use of it.

Hey, I downloaded this a while ago to study the code but never got the chance to, and my harddrive died and I lost it. The link is currently dead and I want to redownload and study the source again.
Can you reupload please?

Thanks,
Matt

I was browsing through my PB folder and I happened to stumble across this. I've uploaded it here. I'll take it down if kenmo doesn't want me mirroring it.

Thank you very much!

Hmm, go ahead and use the code however you want, but that was from over a year ago when I was first learning networking and how manual linked lists work... Looking back at the code it is kind of unorganized, inefficient, and I think there is a memory leak with the linked list strings not being freed manually... I started a complete rewrite yet again earlier this year but never got too far into it.

Edit - Haha wow, that's basically what I wrote in the first post over a year ago..

Actually I wanted it to learn how you used the AIM Protocol.
