UCMA 2.0 - Part 1.5 Setting up a session

In our next iteration, we will add to our commandlet to create a signaling session. In essence we will send an INVITE to the other party so that we can send a message later. There are a number of steps involved in setting up a session but for now we will Read More...

UCMA 2.0 - Part 1.2 - Asynchronous pattern and threading model

UCMA 2.0 - Part 1.1 - High level architecture and design of UCMA

Let’s be honest, UCMA 1.0, while very useful, was a bit lame. The frustrating thing about it was it opened up many new possibilities, but didn’t give you the chance to take advantage of them. You could send messages to another party, but could not determine Read More...
