In-Depth Information
These event handlers are invoked when the client or agent application is closed or otherwise disconnected.
In addition to removing the connection from the appropriate list, a message is sent to the other end of the
conversation so proper clean-up can be performed. If an agent is disconnected, all of the clients that were
connected to it need to be notified.
Creating the Agent Application
Now you'll create the agent application that will be used by the agents responding to client requests. This will
support up to four simultaneous chat sessions.
Creating the Agent Project
The Agent application will start with the standard ASP.NET web site template. This provides the ability to register
and login to the site, simulating the authentication that an agent would normally use.
