hello,
I am trying to build a location based messenger. I am detecting
the location through cell id. Currently I am using openfire server. But what
i realized is that, it doesn't support xep 0080 or xep 0255. So how can i
get response from the server. or need I change the server. Which server will
support these xeps.

Regards
Deepali

Deepali,

All servers will support receiving messages with XEP-0080 data or
XEP-0255. They are, after all just XML stanzas.

* XEP-0255 is a way to send the cell details to the server so that an
objects location can be ascertained.

* XEP-0080 is a way to save location details once you have ascertained them.

Your location based messenger will need a way to calculate location
based on the beacon logs it receives. I suggest you think about the
following architecture:

client -> (sends beacon logs in XEP-0255 ) -> (xmpp server) -> (location
server component) -> (user's geoloc node updated with XEP-0080)

HTH.

S.
