Jordan Stout commented on CB-882:
---------------------------------
Yeah that makes sense as a "plugin" also. But the plugin repository seems to
be anyone who built something, it gets accepted. Meaning, I'd like to start
seeing plugins that work for multiple browsers (such as the ones in the cordova
core... (Media/Camera/etc))....
Since we have the list of what works for using native html5 websockets, and
android doesn't support it,
http://developer.android.com/reference/java/net/Socket.html can be wrapped...
Maybe HTML5 sockets is slow on a certain device and they have native tools
available already, we can use those.
Just some ideas I was wondering about.
Love the work btw.... I'm new and hope to start contributing once I dig deeper.
I just liked that I deployed an html5 socket app in about 5 minutes to my
iPhone :)... I was basically controlling my radio from my phone =) Fun coding!

> Key: CB-882

> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Android, BlackBerry, CordovaJS, iOS
> Reporter: Jordan Stout
> Assignee: Joe Bowser
> Labels: features, socket, sockets
>
> I tested the use of socket.io in an iOS app and I was able to successfully
> communicate back and forth from mobile to desktop. All I did was grab the
> same socket.io script hosted from the node.js server (as a quick test)... Of
> course, this may be cool and all, but I'm not sure how "cross mobile" it is.
> How hard will it be to create native socket support for most (or all) devices
> so developers can talk to socket.io servers (or any other service) natively
> without including the socket.io client scripts?
