Hello
It really helped me out but I want to get some information about AIML and ASP.NET there is Program# to use AIML with ASP.NET but as Program# is no more in any development. So I wanted to know can I use Program AB or Program O with ASP>NET because Program AB is written in JAVA and Program O is written in PHP So it is possible to any of these with ASP.NET.

This all depends on what you want to do really.

Do you want to code or make an AIML interpreter - I mean a program that executes and understands AIML ?

Or are you happy just to use an already built interpreter like Program O as a service - that you merely connect to. If you went that route then you can just choose the best interpreter to use with ASP.NET.

So in the latter case, you just connect to the service and build your app around it.  This means you just need to search for information on how to connect to your chosen interpreter inside your app. For example you can connect to Program O via HTTP - I think it outputs XML or JSON, maybe both. AB I am not sure about.

So tell us which is the case

Thanks It was really Helpful. I just want to use an interpreter for AIML. There is an interpreter fro ASP.net but its not in any more development. So I'm moving to PHP. Now my question is I can use Program O for PHP. How do may I start with Program O?

[Freddy]

I don't know anyone here at the moment that uses it, but I do know there is a new version (3) coming out soon.

So for program O you're best talking to the people that make it : https://program-o.com/

Then later if you like it here, we have our AIML board
