Hi Angus,
Now that web browsers are implementing it
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebSocket#Browser_support), it would
be nice to have support for it from ICS too.
OK, so this is just server push under another name.
You are wrong, because this is not just another name of the server push,
but a different prototol. Also this is a full-duplex connection.
To implement either the client or server using ICS, we need the opposing
client and servers for demonstration, debugging and testing.
As a rule, the client is a modern browser.
For a server, we need HTML page code with the Javascript to access the
websockets server from a browser.
Of course, I have such a test page in the distribution kit.
For a client, we need a URL of an existing public server using websockets,
which will presumably be dynamically updating a web page.
I did not have a goal to implement websockets client, though it can be
done with support of other units which are already implemented for
websockets support, such as handshaking, framing, and message
building.
If people reading this list wish to contribute either or both of these
testing environments, adding websockets will be much faster.
I'll send what I have.
Angus
Best wishes,
Stan
