To put it in a nutshell, these are the goods of the IRClib IRC client-library:
| Compliance: | IRClib runs on all JREs since JRE 1.2.2. Until JRE 1.4 JSSE is required. |
|---|---|
| Documentation: | I think IRClib is quite well documentated. The javadoc is very detailed. Additionally, this homepage provides a tutorial. |
| Clearness: | The library is designed straightforwardly and does not consist of 1000 classes. Instead, it consists of the nine classes you and me need. This makes the lib clearer and allows faster programming. |
| SSL: | Secure Socket IRC connections are supported with optional own trustmanagers! |
| Listening: | IRClib's listening is quite easy but strong. Thus, using IRClib gets easy. |
| User-objects: | The listener-events provide all available user-information (nick, user, host) in a user-object. |
| Parsed Modes: | Channel-modes are parsed automatically for easy and quick mode-handling! |
| mIRC Colors: | mIRC colors can be disabled. |
