Spring and GCM XMPP integration error

Question

My java web application uses Spring and Manve and is deployed into tomcat8. It uses spring 4.1.1 for integraion with gcm xmpp. My dependecies are:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.igniterealtime.smack</groupId>
    <artifactId>smack-core</artifactId>
    <version>4.1.3</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.igniterealtime.smack</groupId>
    <artifactId>smack-tcp</artifactId>
    <version>4.1.3</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.igniterealtime.smack</groupId>
    <artifactId>smack-extensions</artifactId>
    <version>4.1.3</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.igniterealtime.smack</groupId>
    <artifactId>smack-java7</artifactId>
    <version>4.1.3</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.integration</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-integration-xmpp</artifactId>
    <version>4.2.0.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

I created a bean for XMPP Connectio:

import javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory;
import org.jivesoftware.smack.ConnectionConfiguration;
import org.jivesoftware.smack.tcp.XMPPTCPConnectionConfiguration;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Value;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.integration.xmpp.config.XmppConnectionFactoryBean;

@Configuration
public class GcmXmppConnection {

    private static final String GCM_SERVER = "gcm.googleapis.com";

    @Value("${sender.id}@gcm.googleapis.com")
    private String username;

    @Value("${server.api.key}")
    private String password;

    @Value("${gcm.xmpp.host}")
    private String host;

    @Value("${gcm.xmpp.port}")
    private int port;

    @Value("${gcm.xmpp.debuggable}")
    private boolean debuggable;

    @Bean(name = "xmppConnection")
    public XmppConnectionFactoryBean xmppConnectionFactoryBean() {

        XMPPTCPConnectionConfiguration configuration
                = XMPPTCPConnectionConfiguration.builder()
                .setServiceName(host)
                .setHost(host)
                .setCompressionEnabled(false)
                .setPort(port)
                .setConnectTimeout(30000)
                .setSecurityMode(ConnectionConfiguration.SecurityMode.disabled)
                .setSendPresence(false)
                .setDebuggerEnabled(debuggable)
                .setSocketFactory(SSLSocketFactory.getDefault())
                .build();

        XmppConnectionFactoryBean connectionFactoryBean = new XmppConnectionFactoryBean(configuration);
        connectionFactoryBean.setUser(username);
        connectionFactoryBean.setPassword(password);

        return connectionFactoryBean;
    }
}

After start application in tomcat, a error happens on contex spring inicialization.

Can anyone help me, pealse ? Thanks!

1. With Spring Integration 4.2 you should use Spring 4.2. 2. Please, share more StackTrace. Tat one looks strange. From other let me Spring Integration with Smack `4.1.3`. We are still on the `4.0.6` — Artem Bilan, Sep 25 '15 at 14:41
Well, I've just upgraded to the Smack 4.1.4 and it doesn't work with Spring Integration and even isn't compiled! So, we need upgrade and fix. But we can do that only with the Spring Integration *4.3* already: major change, major version. BTW your issue looks like `XmppConnectionFactoryBean.java:103: error: incompatible types: ConnectionConfiguration cannot be converted to XMPPTCPConnectionConfiguration` — Artem Bilan, Sep 25 '15 at 14:47

Please, find this JIRA on the matter.

And here are my comment which are feasible for the answer as well:

I just upgrade spring to 4.2.0 and downgrade smack version to 4.0.6 and it works fine. Thanks!! — araraujo, Sep 28 '15 at 11:19
@araraujo : can you update your latest maven configuration here? I'm trying to make this work as well but didn't get any luck yet. — shkhssn, Apr 02 '17 at 05:49
