Not able to start with asmack

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_chat);
        SmackAndroid.init(this);

        if (savedInstanceState == null) {
            getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
                    .add(R.id.container, new PlaceholderFragment()).commit();
        }

        ConnectionConfiguration connConfig = new ConnectionConfiguration(HOST, PORT, SERVICE);
        XMPPConnection connection = new XMPPConnection(connConfig);
    }

this code is showing error "Cannot instantiate the type XMPPConnection" in eclipse with red underline

for following line:

XMPPConnection connection = new XMPPConnection(connConfig);

I am using asmack-android-8-4.0.0-rc2.jar, smack-resolver-dnsjava-4.0.0.jar as libs

If I remember correctly latest versions of ASmack require you to use a subclass of XMPPConnection and not the class itself. The fact that XMPPConnection can still has a public constructor is indeed misleading...

Try using XMPPTCPConnection instead:

Instead of:

XMPPConnection connection = new XMPPConnection(connConfig);

Use this:

XMPPTCPConnection conn = new XMPPTCPConnection(config);
