You can read more about this plugin here (in russian lang).

To formalize contact process between server plugin and clients there was written API (in russian lang) over JSON-RPC 2.0 protocol.

• Plugin DLL server library. Loaded by CommFort server.
• Web scripts. JS/PHP/HTML files loaded on client side. They connect to server.

• Server plugin was tested and optimized for Wine. CommFort server works under Wine. It was my goal to make plugin work under Wine too.
• There is small HTTP server implemented in server plugin. It just gets HTTP request, parses it and returns response.
• Client side can communicate with server using HTTP requests (AJAX) or clean protocol (pass only request data). All comunication is implemented over Winsock.
• I have created small JSON parser/generator (in C++) specially for project's purposes.
• CommFort server provided binary API for plugins. Plugin parses and generates binary data.

• RAD Studio XE2.
• KGrid. Grid control with a variety of options.
• CommFort plugin API (in russian lang).

CommFort chat is popular chat application in CIS countries (Russia, Ukraine, Belarus etc.).

It was my first serious project on C++ so don't be preconceived. I have started development on July 2010. Project was closed on September 2012 due to the fact that the popularity of CommFort chat began to fall.

The code is in transition state. I had many todos but my motivation fell and I have closed the project.

All server plugin images are stored here.
