  15.                 $('#btnLogin').click(function ()  
  16.                 {  
  17.                     var phoneNumber = document.getElementById('txtPhoneNumber').value;  
  18.                     var password = document.getElementById('txtPassword').value;

  10. {  
  11.     public class ChatHub : Hub  
  12.     {  
  13.         static WhatsApp wa;  
  14.   
  15.         public void Send(string to, string message)  
  16.         {  
  17.             if(wa.ConnectionStatus== ApiBase.CONNECTION_STATUS.LOGGEDIN)  
  18.             {  
  19.                 wa.SendMessage(to, message);  
  20.                 Clients.All.notifyMessage(string.Format("{0}: {1}", to, message));  
  21.             }  
  22.         }  
  23.   
  24.         public void Login(string phoneNumber,string password)  
  25.         {  
  26.             Thread thhread=new Thread(t =>  
  27.                 {  
  28.                   wa=new WhatsApp(phoneNumber,password,phoneNumber,true);  
  29.                   wa.OnConnectSuccess+=() =>  
  30.                 {  
  31.                   Clients.All.notifyMessage("Connected......");  
  32.                     wa.OnLoginSuccess+=(phone,data)=>  
  33.                         {  
  34.                             Clients.All.notifyMessage("Login Success !");  
  35.                         };  
  36.                     wa.OnLoginFailed +=(data) =>  
  37.                         {  
  38.                             Clients.All.notifyMessage(string.Format("Login failed: {0}", data));  
  39.                         };  
  40.                     wa.Login();  
  41.                 };  
  42.                     wa.OnConnectFailed += (ex) =>  
  43.                         {  
  44.                             Clients.All.notifyMessage(string.Format("Connected failed: {0}", ex.StackTrace));  
  45.                         };  
  46.                     wa.Connect();  
  47.                 })  
  48.             { IsBackground=true};  
  49.             thhread.Start();  
  50.         }  
  51.           
  52.     }  
  53. }
