.NET Reference Messenger Bot Source Code Released

Scott Van Vliet’s Weblog - .NET Reference Messenger Bot - Source Code Posted

"After receiving numerous requests for the .NET Reference Bot source, I’ve finally taken the time to dig up the code and post it here:

This package includes the DotMSN API (which provides the meat of MSN functionality) and a test application, NRBTest. To get the test application up and running, you’ll need to modify the App.config file to include a valid MSN Messenger account (underwhich the bot will run.)

Very cool. This C# project is a great example for using the DotMSN...

It’s interesting how easy it looks to use the DotMSN API (now that Scott has done all the homework ;). The NRB code is maybe a hundred lines of code or so, with the "meat" code at maybe 20-30 lines of code.

Start your Bot engines!
