Jordan Stout commented on CB-84:
--------------------------------
Huge +1 on this. HTML5 / JavaScript native mobile apps is the future....
amongst the future of the web... included is Node.js and Socket.io. There
NEEDS to be some sort of cross mobile socket support. I've tested socket.io on
iOS and it worked (real quick test).
> Use socket.io for network communication

> Key: CB-84
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-84
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: weinre
> Reporter: Patrick Mueller
> Assignee: Patrick Mueller

> From https://github.com/phonegap/weinre/issues/5
> *davejohnson opened this issue June 23, 2011*
> This is particularly good if we can take advantage of native sockets on ios
> and / or there is a socket plugin for phonegap
> *pmuellr commented June 23, 2011*
> An open investigation item I have for socket.io is how they do their
> cross-site i/o. Not sure if they depend on CORS or can use some other
> mechanism. If they can support cross-site i/o for iOS 3.1.x, it would mean we
> could actually support iOS 3.1.x in weinre, which we can't today. Same with
> some older versions of webOS.
> I think converting to socket.io would be relatively straight-forward, but I
> wasn't particularly happy with the Java server impls I saw floating around.
> At this point, moving to socket.io would also likely mean moving to node for
> the server piece at the same time.
> *davejohnson commented June 23, 2011*
> agreed. I think socket.io and node go hand in hand.
