Subject: Connect to Google Talk faster!
Connection to Google Talk from agsXMPP over GPRS is way slow. But looking at the agsXMPP code, I noticed you're getting SID and LSID first and Auth after, with two HTTP requests. However, Google documentation suggests abandoning SID/LSID, so I modified the X-Google-Token code, see below.

Hello Koterpillar,

it's a while ago now since I added the Google X-TOKEN stuff. And i think the 2 HTTPS requests were required. I agree that it's slow on smart devices. I will take a look at the new documents from Google again and merge your code to the SVN copy if you give us the permissions.

Do you have a link to this documentation?

A success response contains the authentication token, labeled "Auth", in the body of the response. Your application must reference this token in each request to the Google service for this user. Additional cookies, labeled "SID" and "LSID", are not currently active and should not be used.

And of course you have my permissions to merge it... I release it into public domain, or is there something else I need to say?

Subject: WebException
  1.         private void OnGetClientAuthResponse(IAsyncResult result)
  2.         {
  3.             WebRequest request = (WebRequest)result.AsyncState;
  4.             try
  5.             {
  6.                 HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.EndGetResponse(result);
  7.  
  8.                 if (response.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK)
  9.                 {
  10.                     Stream dataStream = response.GetResponseStream();
  11.  
  12.                     ParseClientAuthResponse(dataStream);
  13.  
  14.                     dataStream.Close();
  15.                     response.Close();
  16.  
  17.                     _Base64Token = GetToken(_Auth);
  18.                     DoSaslAuth();
  19.                 }
  20.                 else
  21.                     base.XmppClientConnection.Close();
  22.             }
  23.             catch (WebException ex)
  24.             {
  25.                 if(((HttpWebResponse)ex.Response).StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.Forbidden)
  26.                     base.XmppClientConnection.FireOnAuthError(null);
  27.                 base.XmppClientConnection.Close();
  28.             }
  29.         }
In the original code, WebExceptions are not handled at all - I added some (hopefully correct) handling of "Forbidden" and (all other =) network errors. But I'm unsure about what to pass to FireOnAuthError as a parameter...

Hello Koterpillar,

sorry we were very bus< this week and had no time yet to work on Google X-TOKEN and check in the new code.
Normally the Xml stanza is passes with the auth error. But in this case there is no xml stanza and null is OK.

We implemented the X-TOKEN because the CF still supports no SSL/TLS sockets, and this is the only way to connect to Google Talk without SSL/TLS.
