I need to connect to an SMPP server through JAVA and send data through to it for SMS to be delivered from SMPP server (Provided by third party) I have the login details and api document.

I just have no idea what smpp is nor how to connect to it via JAVA. I have setup a mail server that receives emails. I then need to read the body of that email and convert the body to tags etc for smpp as per api document I received from the SMS provider. (All done in JAVA)

My only task now is to connect to the SMPP server to send out the SMS's, and I have no idea where to start. Ive been trying to find something on google but there is very little.

I will be grateful for any advice given

You have enough to choose from, for example:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jsmppclient[^],
https://github.com/uudashr/jsmpp[^],
https://github.com/twitter/cloudhopper-smpp[^],
http://opensmpp.org[^],
http://sourceforge.net/projects/logicasmpp[^].

This is only what can be seen on surface of open-source world.

Ive downloaded a few open source projects, but they all look like SMPP servers. Im a bit confused with what SMPP is. Do I connect to SMPP the same way I would for example MYSQL or SMTP using a connection string? opening the connection to the smpp server and then sending my data through the connection?

First one is just client... More importantly, these codes implement the protocol...
On its operation detail, please see this article and referenced literature:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMPP.

Thanks Sergey,

I had to import SMPP API as jar folder in JAVA. Then followed the instructions on the connection process.

Thank you for your help
