there is no "my group name". Because you can be in a different group at each of your contacts.
There is also no extension in XMPP to ask for the group, but you can write an own extension for this using IQs.

Subject: Retrieve my group name
Dear Alex,

Thanks for your reply.

I have configured my user id with multiple groups in openfire.The User properties option is showing the user details with multiple groups under Users/Groups in openfire. I sent the IQ with "jabber:iq:register" or "vcard-temp" to get user profile details. But It doesn't provide my group details. so please provide me some sample extension to fetch my group.

Thanks

you get the groups from the RosterItem object in the OnRosterItem event.

  1. private void XmppCon_OnRosterItem(object sender, agsXMPP.protocol.iq.roster.RosterItem item)
  2. {
  3.    var groups = item.GetGroups();
  4.    // add you code to loop all groups here
  5. }

Dear Alex,

Yes. you are right!

I can able to get the group name for roster's OnRosterItem Event. This is not my requirement.
Actually i'm looking for how to get my group name not roster or friends.

Kindly advice me to proceed further.

Thanks

you have to ask each of your contacts in which group you are. There is no other way for doing this.
You can automate this process with Iqs. The custom packet tutorial is where you should start.
