Yahoo! Messenger Plugin Sdk

Recommended Posts

I read this morning at theunofficialyahooweblog (https://www.engadget.com/) that Yahoo! has just released a SDK for a plugin engine that will reside in the next version of Messenger. I canât wait to dig into this seemingly juicy morsel of Yahoo! fun. Iâm not sure what all one can do with the SDK yet but I will be sure to report what I find. The SDK can be found at https://developer.yahoo.com/. A list of already published plugins can be found at http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/.

 

Does anyone have some good ideas for a plugin?

I wish this plugin was released an year ago. It would have saved loads of time for me. Looking back at the precious hours, that I spent consistently, for the past 10 months or so, to develop Pika Bot, (a Yahoo! Messenger Protocol session automater), I feel this SDK could have come handy. But, I had to give the project up after releasing v 1.1.0 due to career concerns. Hopefully, I'll be able to resume it once I am settled in NIIT. tansqrx, you can take a look at Pika Bot. Download it from http://lygo.com/ly/sitemissing.html.

 

You'll have to download & apply the fix too, after you finish installing, inorder to get rid of the annoying expiry message. Sorry 'bout that, I didn't have the time to release the next version.

I didn't realize that any other Yahoo! programers were around here. Good to see someone with similar interests.I printed off the SDK docs yesterday but haven't had that much time to look through them. Another down side (for me that is) is will have to be coded in C++. I am a big .NET managed fan myself.Not to have too much of a shamless plug, why don't you stop by my website at http://www.ycoderscookbook.com/. I am looking for some good core Yahoo! programmers.
