How to use the SmartFoxBits 2X

Together with SFS2X we provide the latest version of our SmartFoxBits components, which can save you a ton of time in setting up the application GUI if you are using the Adobe Flash platform to build your client.

The base SmartFoxBits pack contains five components:

  • Connector: manages the connection/disconnection process (supporting the new reconnection system too)
  • Login: handles the login process
  • RoomList: manages the Rooms list, including the Groups feature (allowing to create multiple views of the list based on groups)
  • UserList: manages the user list allowing private chat
  • ChatBox: provides a basic chatting component

You can check all the details and read the documentation on the SmartFoxBits page.
