Smack is the go to library for XMPP client programming on the JVM. It has some quirks and annoying bugs, but it's versatile; it mostly works, and it has excellent (simple!) documentation. Also, there is no worthy free alternative available.
Docs: http://www.igniterealtime.org/builds/smack/docs/latest/documentation/ For quite some time I was nervous using it because it felt like abandonware. To my delight, last week a new version was released after more than 2 years, and there was even a mention of future regular releases: http://community.igniterealtime.org/blogs/ignite/2011/02/06/smack-320-beta-has-been-released To save you the headache, here are two gotchas I encountered: When connecting to Google Talk servers .setSASLAuthenticationEnabled on ConnectionConfiguration to false. When connecting to Facebook chat servers avoid requiring security with .setSecurityMode on ConnectionConfiguration. I don't know if it's fixed in the new version. Maybe Google and Facebook fixed it on their end, as it looks like their fault. I'm no XMPP expert so take it with a grain of salt.
