The WebSockets Prototype Gets Another Update

  • Artikel

We have just updated the WebSockets prototype on our HTML5 Labs site, bringing the implementation in line with the recently released IETF WebSockets 09 Protocol Specification.

This latest release updates both the server and client prototype implementations based on the IETF 09 specification, and brings no significant feature changes.

We will release additional HTML5 labs prototypes if there are further changes to the specification.

Thanks!

    Hi - I'm using the prototype to talk to a web socket server on a secure channel. On _socket.Open() in the client, I'm getting an exception thrown with "Secure web sockets are not supported. Specify 'ws' scheme instead of 'wss'.". Is this a limitation of the DesktopClient.dll - or is it indicating that the server doesn't support wss? If it is the former - are you likely to update to support secure? Thanks

    Hi Will there be soon a implementation for the 010 protocol specification?

    @Juerg Staub We don't plan to release other prototypes. The WebSocket spec is now implemented by IE10 so we recommend using IE for any further testing you may want to do.

    @Alex Stevens Hi Alex, It may be that the server is using a different version of the WebSocket protocol. The spec was still work in progress so there are various implementations that are based on different version of the spec. You should make sure that both client and server are aligned to the same version.

    @Claudio Caldato I mean a WCF WebSockets implementation for .NET 4.0, which implements the later or final specifications. We are using chrome and the latest versions are based on 010 version of the specification. Thanks

    @Juerg Staub, .NET 4.5, Chrome and soon the rest of the world will all use the standard version defined in RFC 6455 (sec-websocket-version: 13)

    Hi, Where can I get the code samples for this latest update? Also, this update work without the need of Silverlight/jquery.slws.js or? Thanks!

    @Asim IE10 and Windows8 support WebSockets so there is no need to use our prototype.
