      <chatRoomRobot
            connectId="irc://slewis2_@irc.freenode.net"
            containerFactoryName="ecf.irc.irclib"
            id="org.eclipse.ecf.presence.bot.defaultbot">
          <chatRooms
                name="#eclipse-ecf">
          </chatRooms>
          <chatRooms
                name="#secret-channel"
                password="secret-password">
          </chatRooms>
      </chatRoomRobot>
   </extension>

Note that to have the chatRoomRobot receive chat room messages and process them, that the chatRoomMessageHandler should also be defined using the id for the chatRoomRobot given above. For example:


   <extension
         point="org.eclipse.ecf.presence.bot.chatRoomMessageHandler">
      <handler
            chatRoomRobotId="org.eclipse.ecf.presence.bot.defaultbot"
            class="org.eclipse.ecf.presence.bot.DefaultChatRoomMessageHandler">
      </handler>
   </extension>
