websocket implementation

Hi

Does Chilkat include C++ library that implements the WebSocket Protocol? One that implements the client functionality.

With Regards. alon.


Answer

I do not want to redirect you in wrong but as far as I know, there is no exact WebSocket implementation. Chilkat (if im correct again) has Socket capabilities without long term keep-alive connection. Means, You have to connect do your job and disconnect at the end eventually. WebSocket's nature is always online.

However, If you have a WebSocket somewhere already implemented, You can connect to that server via Chilkat just like connecting to any other TCP Socket Server.

Note: I am just an user as like you. So it will be better to have an answer from Chilkat Software anyway.
