Video Chating, How?

Red Hat 9 allows people to video chat

[digi_mind]

This OS redhat 9 comes with a program that allows people to video chat.

Where in the whole system is the source code for that program located?

If no one know that, then how can I find the location of the source code of any of the others programs?

You'll need to install the SRPMS to gain access to the source code for each package. You'll find these on the web via the FTP mirrors, or on the last couple of CDs of the RedHat 9 package.

A quick search reveals the package is GnomeMeeting - a H232 compatible product, so it'll work with NetMeeting from Microsoft.
It's also available from their website. Google for it.

If I want to create a video messenger, what language should I use?

[jpjones]

I haven't used the product so don't yell at me if I'm wrong :)

From looking at the website, the language you choose is just the interface language, e.g. do you want the menu text to be in English, Danish, Swedish etc

[digi_mind]

I was refering at the language as the programming language : ) not the writen one.

Do you have any idea of the programming language used to create video chatting?

[killroy]

Any language will do, but linux has very good suport for C related langauges.

In the words of that famous yellow Mr Simpson "D'oh".
Re-reading the post it all makes sense!

Yeah, C/C++ is the way to go, with the Gnome or KDE Development APIs to hook into the windowing interface.
