Hello everybody,
(I am back after some time ;-) ).

I have searched a bit on google and on the forum, but I cannot find
anything around about it.

Is there any chat component for lazarus. What I am looking for is a
component where I can instantly exchange messages (as in a chat).

Already tThanks for the answers

I don't think so, because it's need of server and client side
component, and then you must manage users, rooms, pvt ecc... you must
write all the thing by hand using networking library like lnet.

Of course, you could try and use existing libraries (e.g. XMPP/Jabber
libraries in C/C++/Delphi/whatever) and see if you can use them inside
FPC/Lazarus...

Welcome back. You can try any of these

a) http://delphi.about.com/library/weekly/aa101105a.htm
a Delphi UDP chat program

b) http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/Delphi-Kylix/Creating-Chat-
Application-with-Borland-DelphiIndy-The-Client/

http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/Delphi-Kylix/Server-Side-Chat-
Application-with-Borland-DelphiIndy-concluded/
a Delphi chat program using Indy

c) http://mick605.developpez.com/articles/creation-chat/
another Delphi Chat program using Indy (this one is in French)

They are not components, they are fully working programs with source
code using UDP or TCP sockets. I hope it helps. Bon chance!
