Hi,

I want to explore the broadcast facility for apache mina vysper 0.7.

How send a broadcast message to all the users connected?

Well, there are a number of broadcasting features in XMPP.
Which to use depends on the use case. Unless you give more details on that,
my generic answer would be:

* The most common broadcasting is sending presence stanzas from on user to
all his contacts
* In Multi-user chat, all participants can send messages to all other
participants (this is simplified. There is a whole role concept behind XMPP
MUC, see http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0045.html )
* Publish-Subscribe is a more general concept, for a wide range of use
cases, see http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0060.html )

What do you want to do?

  Bernd
