Hi,

If your software platform already uses Qt, it makes sense to use Telepathy-Qt4 on the client side.
Otherwise, you are free to choose. There is also a Python binding, and the C client-side interface based on GLib and provided by telepathy-glib.

Information on Telepathy-Qt4 is available, weird as it seems, at http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/wiki/Telepathy-Qt4

Hope this helps,
  Mikhail

Hi,
 I couldn't find much information abt Telepathy-Qt4 anywhere online. So, didn't give a try. May be that would suit my implementation more. Given my use-case do you suggest to look at telepathy-qt4?

Thanks,
Sai

I had a look at Empathy. I need a much simpler way of doing it. Is it possible to establish a gtalk call session without having mission control or any tubes? Can I just create an account and register it with gtalk and make a call using telepathy-farsight? I do not need the presence information.
It is like from a phone, login with a google account and make a gtalk call to one of the gtalk contact.

Can anybody help me or point me to any help to do this?




You don’t have to use tubes if you don’t need them. If Mission Control is installed in the system, you can use its AccountManager interface to discover the Google Talk (or any other suitable) account or create one. You are going to need it to request the call channel.

Similarly, you don’t have to use contact list channels or presence if you don’t care about that. Just use the callee’s address when requesting a call channel, or if you want more elaborate contact validation beforehand, request its contact handle.

P.S. Would Telepathy-Qt4, by chance, be better suited for your implementation?

Best regards,
  Mikhail
